Resumo: | Since flexibility is an important component of health-related physical fitness at all ages, this parameter should be evaluated in children and adolescents because the ability to acquire and maintain levels of flexibility is greater in this age group. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate body weight, height, BMI and flexibility according to chronological age and sexual maturation and to determine the influence of these variables on flexibility in students from public and private schools. A cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study was conducted. The sample consisted of 2604 girls aged 8 to 17 years. Body weight, height, BMI, sexual maturation, and flexibility were evaluated. The data were analyzed descriptively using the following inferential tests: two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by the Tukey post-hoc test, Pearson’s and Spearman’s simple correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The SPSS® 13.0 program was used for all statistical analyses, with a level of significance of p< 0.05. Significant differences with increasing age and maturation stage were observed for the variables body weight, height and BMI when compared to the subsequent year. In conclusion, body wei-ght and height increased with increasing age, especially between 8 and 13 years, and flexibility remained stable throughout childhood and adolescence. |

O estudo teve como objetivo comparar a massa corporal, estatura, índice de massa corporal e flexibilidade com a idade cronológica e a maturação sexual e verificar a influência das variáveis, avaliadas neste estudo, na flexibilidade de escolares da rede pública e particular de ensino. Este estudo caracteriza-se por ser de natureza descritivo analítico transversal. A amostra foi composta por 2604 meninas de oito a 17 anos, sendo avaliada a massa corporal, estatura, IMC, maturação sexual e flexibilidade. Foi empregada uma análise descritiva dos dados. Os testes inferências utilizados foram: análise de variância (Anova Two-way) seguida do teste de Post Hoc de Tukey os coeficientes de correlação simples de Pearson e Spearman e a análise de regressão linear múltipla “stepwise”. Todos os procedimentos estatísticos foram realizados no programa SPSS® 13.0, com nível de significância de p < 0,05. As diferenças estatisticamente significativas ocorreram com o avanço da idade e dos estágios maturacio-nais para as variáveis de massa corporal, estatura e IMC, quando comparados a partir de um ano mais velho. Conclui-se que com o avanço da idade as variáveis de massa corporal e estatura sofrem aumento crescente, principalmente, nas idades compreendidas entre oito a 13 anos, e a flexibilidade manteve-se estável por toda a infância e adolescência.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
