dc.description.abstractBackground: Anthropometric measurements frequently used in sports sciences and public health is to be informed about the body composition of individuals are simple, cheap, easy and reliable methods. Some of these measurements are body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and waist hip ratio (WHR) measurements. Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the BMI and WHR values of the individuals who exercise at least two a weak in the gym in terms of age and gender by benefiting from anthropometric measurement methods. Methods: The study involved 528 volunteer individuals, including 72 men (13.6%) and 456 women (86.4%) between the ages of 18 and 65 who exercised in the gym at least two days a week in Malatya, Turkey. The mean age of the participants was 28.56 +/- 9.96, the height average was 1.65 +/-.08 and the body weight average was 72.60 +/- 14.35. The heights of all participants were taken with a wall-mounted stadiometer (Holtain Ltd., England), their body weights were taken with an electronic scale (Seca, Germany), and their diameter-circumference measurements (hip, waist) were taken with a gullick meter. Results: According to the age variable of the research group, it was determined that there was a low, positive and linear relationship between BMI (r=,361; p<0.05) and WHR (r=,272; p<0.05), and this relationship was statistically significant. In addition, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between BMI and WHR averages depending on the gender variable (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a result, there is an increase in BMI and WHR with the progress of the age. Similarly, as a result of the increase of BMI, WHR is also increased. While the mean BMI is higher in women than in men, WHR is higher in men than in women.en_US
