RESUMEN
There is little information about the relationship bet- ween anthropometric indexes and motor function in active and inactive subjects. In that sense, this research aims todetermine the relationship between anthropometric characteristics and motor function score in Chilean subjects with different levels of physical activity. The sample included 63 subjects (20 women), allocated into three groups:physically active group (GFA, n=21), athlete group (GD, n=21) and physically inactive group (GFI, n=21).The variables studied were body composition, waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and motor functionality using the Functional Movement Screen (FMS). A One-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation test, and a multiple linear regression model were applied, considering P <0.05.The results showed a moderate inverse correlation (-0.52:≤ r :≤ -0.62)between FMS score and sum of skin folds, Z-score fat, fat mass (Kg), BMI in the GFI. Similarly, in the GFA the FMS showed a moderate inverse correlation (-0.54 ≤ r ≤ -0.60) with the sum of skin folds, fat mass .(Kg& %). Changes in the FMS score were mainly explained by the sum of skin fold, Z-score fat, fat mass (kg), percentage of fat mass and WC. In conclusion, anthropometric characteristics are associated with motor function in physically active (GFA) and inactive Chilean subjects, showing an inverse relationship between the FMS score and adiposity parameters of body composition.

Existe escasa información respecto a la relación entre los parámetros antropométricos y la funcionalidad motriz en sujetos activos e inactivos. En ese sentido, la presente investigación pretende determinar la relación entre las características antropométricas y la puntuación de funcionalidad motriz en sujetos chilenos con distintos niveles de actividad física. La muestra incluyó 63 sujetos (20 mujeres), distribuidos en tres grupos: grupo físicamente activo (GFA, n=21), grupo deportista (GD, n=21) y grupo físicamente inactivo (GFI, n=21). Las variables estudiadas correspondieron a la composición corporal, perímetro de cintura (PC), índice de masa corporal (IMC), índice cintura-cadera (ICC) y funcionalidad motriz a través del Functional Movement Screen (FMS). Se aplicó Anova una vía, el test de Pearson y un modelo de regresión lineal múltiple, considerando un p <0,05. Los resultados indican correlaciones moderadas e inversas entre la puntuación FMS y la sumatoria de pliegues cutáneos, Zadiposidad, masa adiposa (kg) e IMC en el GFI (-0,52 ≤ r ≤ -0,62), y con la sumatoria de pliegues cutáneos, masa adiposa (kg y %) en el GFA(-0,54 ≤ r ≤ -0,60). Los cambios en la puntuación del FMS se explican principalmente por la suma de pliegues cutáneos, la Zadiposidad, la masa grasa (kg), el porcentaje de masa grasa y el PC. En conclusión, las características antropométricas y la funcionalidad motriz se encuentran asociadas en sujetos chilenos físicamente activos (GFA) e inactivos, mostrando una relación inversa entre el puntaje del FMS con los parámetros de la composición corporal relacionados con la adiposidad(AU)
