Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between height, weight, triceps skinfold and biceps skinfold. The subjects were selected from different schools of Delhi. The age of the selected subjects for this study ranged between 14 to 17 years. Height, weight was measured by stadiometer, weighing machine respectively and triceps and calf skinfold was measured by skinfold caliper. Descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation was applied to check the results. The results revealed that height and weight are positively correlated, triceps and calf skinfold were strongly positively correlated and triceps and calf skinfold were positively correlated with weight. The significant value was set at 0.05.
