Sumario:Aim: The aim was to compare the percentage of fat, fat mass and lean mass between veteran and novice Krav-Maga practitioners during 16-week Krav-Maga training. Materials and Methods: Thirty Krav-Maga practitioners participated voluntarily, being: veterans (n = 15), who practiced Krav-maga for at least 3 years and beginners (n = 15) who are starting this Krav-Maga practice. The physical training program was developed in 16 weeks of training, with Krav-Maga specific joint mobility, stretching, strengthening and coaching exercises, with frequency of three weekly sessions and duration of 60 to 90 minutes with intensities ranging from low, moderate to high, established by the heart rate obtained at the aerobic threshold (AT) and respiratory compensation point, obtained by the Yo Yo VO2 max test and through the evaluations and protocols applied before and during the follow-up. Fat percentage was estimated using the proposed Jackson and Pollock method for men with seven skinfolds (subscapular, triceps, pectoral, middle axillary, supra iliac, abdominal and middle femural) with a Sanny scientific plicometer, accurate to 1 mm. Descriptive statistics. Results and Discussion: Both groups had an increase in lean mass and a decrease in fat mass, as well as a decrease in fat percentage. Conclusion: We conclude that 16 weeks of Krav-maga training is able to reduce aspects of veteran and beginner body composition.
