Introduction: In the sports field, core stability is crucial for maintaining balance
during the execution of specific movements. Few studies have determined the
relationship between sports performance, stability, and muscle activity. Objective:
To explore the relationship between maximum oxygen consumption and factors
such as electrical activity of core muscles, body composition, and core stability in
university athletes. Materials and Methods: This descriptive and correlational
cross-sectional study involved athletes from fourteen sports disciplines. Five
variables were measured, including the maximum amplitude of electromyography
of core muscles, the area of static and dynamic stability, and the percentage of
muscle mass. Instruments such as wireless surface electromyography sensors, 3D
inertial sensors, and ergoespirometry equipment were used. The software Jamovi
v 2.3.28.0 was utilized for variable calculation. Results: There was a significant
and positive correlation between the percentage of muscle mass, amplitude, and maximum oxygen consumption. When discriminated by sports discipline,
differences were found in the studied variables. A positive and significant
correlation was observed between maximum amplitude and muscle percentage in
all sports, except football and softball. In rugby, a positive and significant
correlation was found between muscle percentage and maximum oxygen
consumption. No correlation was found between voltage amplitude and stability in
athletes, indicating that sports stability is more complex than simply focusing on the
core. Conclusion: The study redefines the understanding of stability and its
connection to sports performance, providing insights for developing effective
training strategies. It is necessary to consider body composition in the evaluation
and planning of training to achieve more effective workouts.
