Abstract

A study is conducted to investigate whether growth is adversely affected in 137 young competitive female artistic gymnasts involved in different training volumes. Conclusions reveal that advanced- and intermediate-training level competitive female gymnasts tend to exhibit an adolescent growth spurt that is similar in timing and tempo to short, normal, slowly maturing girls.
