| Sumario: | Introduction: Many young people today seek as academies, not only in search of a healthy body and quality of life, but also by the influence of the media and social networks, which impose stereotyped aesthetic standards; This can cause distortion of your real body image. Objective: To evaluate a corporal satisfaction in young gymnastic practitioners. Methodology: A silhouette scale for Brazilian adults and the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) were used. Descriptive statistics were used, by means of frequency, mean, standard deviation. An analysis of the data was performed using the statistical program SPSS (version 20.0), adopting a level of significance of 5%. Results: It was observed that 51.85% of the sample is satisfied with their own body image, and according to a Scale of Silhouettes only 22.22% is identified with images compatible with their reals. Discussion: It should be stressed that the Physical Education professional must know an importance of the body image, considering how the individual's experiences and influences try to avoid exaggeration without incentive to practice physical activity, taking into account a biological individuality and the limits of each person's body. Conclusion: From the results found on a scale of Silhouettes, most volunteers find themselves dissatisfied with a body image. However, BSQ has shown that a large number of group gymnastics practitioners are satisfied. Possibly this difference of results occurred, due to the greater ease of interpretation in response to the questionnaire of silhouettes scale, BSQ being an extensive instrument, which requires a greater time to answer it. |
