    Objetivo: Comprobar si el índice de masa corporal (IMC), el índice cintura-cadera (ICC), circunferencia de cintura (CCi), circunferencia de cadera (CCa) y porcentaje de grasa corporal se correlacionan entre sí en personas mayores de 60 años.

    Método: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo correlacional en 1055 personas mayores de 60 años de diferentes países europeos pertenecientes al proyecto europeo IN COMMON SPORTS. Se realizó una valoración inicial de las variables antropométricas.

    Resultados: Correlación significativa del IMC con el porcentaje de grasa corporal, CCi y CCa pero no con el ICC. El ICC presenta correlaciones proporcionales significativas con el CCi, e inversamente proporcionales con el CCa. El género masculino muestra una correlación significativa entre el ICC y IMC, pero no con el porcentaje de grasa corporal. El IMC promedio muestra una tendencia general alta para ambos géneros. Mujeres mayor porcentaje de grasa.

    Conclusión: El IMC se correlaciona con ICC, CCa y CCi pero dependiendo del género. Los hombres mostraron correlaciones significativas entre IMC e ICC, pero en las mujeres no se encuentran correlaciones de estas medidas.

    Objective: Prove if the body mass index (BMI), ratio waist-hip (WHR), waist ratio (WR), hip ratio (HR) and body fat percentage were correlates in people over 60.

    Method: A correlational descriptive study was carried out in 1055 people over the age of 60 from different European countries belonging to the European project IN COMMON SPORTS. An initial assessment was made of the anthropometric variables.

    Results: Significant correlation of BMI with body fat percentage, WR and WH but not with WHR. The WHR has significant proportional correlations with the WR, and inversely proportional to the HR.  Male sex shows a significant correlation between WHR and BMI, but not with the percentage of body fat. The average BMI shows a high overall trend for both sexes. Women higher percentage of fat.

    Conclusion: Men show a significant correlation between BMI and WHR and for women no correlations were found of these measures. So the BMI does correlate with WHR, HR and WR but depending on gender.

    Objetivo: Verificar se o índice de massa corporal (IMC), o relação cintura / quadril (RCQ), circunferência da cintura (CCi),  circunferência do quadril (CCa) e percentual de gordura corporal están correlacionados em pessoas com mais de 60 anos.

    Método: Foi realizado um estudo descritivo correlacional em 1055 pessoas com mais de 60 anos de idade de diferentes países europeus pertencentes ao projeto europeu IN COMMON SPORTS. Foi realizada uma avaliação inicial das variáveis antropométricas.

    Resultados: Correlação significativa do IMC com o percentual de gordura corporal, CCi e CCa, mas não com o RCQ. O RCQ apresenta correlações proporcionais significativas com o CCi e inversamente proporcional com o CCa. O sexo masculino mostra uma correlação significativa entre o RCQ e o IMC, mas não com o percentual de gordura corporal. O IMC médio mostra uma tendência geral alta para ambos os sexos. Mulheres apresentam maior porcentagem de gordura.

    Conclusão: O IMC está correlacionado com o RCQ, CCa e CCi, mas dependendo do sexo. Os homens apresentaram correlações significativas entre IMC e RCQ, mas nenhuma correlação dessas medidas foi encontrada nas mulheres.
