Participated in the XXIII Brazilian Championship of Powerlifting held in Brusque, Santa Catarina. Fifty-one athletes (38 men and 13 women) of different age groups participated in anthropometric measuring of skinfolds (DC), body circumferences (PC), bone diameters, body mass (MC) and stature.

description Participated in the XXIII Brazilian Championship of Powerlifting held in Brusque, Santa Catarina. Fifty-one athletes (38 men and 13 women) of different age groups participated in anthropometric measuring of skinfolds (DC), body circumferences (PC), bone diameters, body mass (MC) and stature. Body composition was defined by the two-component model. The athletes were measured either one or two days before the competition, all of them were volunteers and they represented various Brazilian regions. They had been classified in selective competitions in their home states. Results pointed out that muscle mass was smaller than that observed in international weightlifters, while their body fat levels were higher. Among female athletes, body fat was more prominent in the extremities, especially in the lower limbs. The male athletes presented an even distribution of body fat in extremities and trunk. In conclusion, Brazilian powerlifters presented values of body components that diverge from their international counterparts, particularly for DC and PC as a function of age range. .<p> <b> RESUMO </b> Este estudo teve como objetivo traçar características morfológicas de atletas homens e mulheres de diversas faixas etárias da elite do levantamento de potência nacional que participaram do XXIII Campeonato Brasileiro de Powerlifting realizado em Brusque (Santa Catarina). Para tal 51 atletas (38 homens e 13 mulheres) de levantamento de potência participaram de mensurações antropométricas de dobras cutâneas (DC), perímetros corporais (PC), diâmetros ósseos, massa corporal (MC) e estatura. Também foram determinados valores da composição corporal em dois componentes. Os atletas foram avaliados de um a dois dias antes da competição sendo todos voluntários e procedentes de várias regiões do Brasil tendo sido classificados em seletivas estaduais. Os resultados apontaram o tecido magro abaixo do verificado em atletas internacionais de potência, porém com tecido gordo acima destes, sendo que, nas atletas mulheres esta gordura é mais proeminente nas extremidades corporais apresentando-se mais intensa nos membros inferiores. Os atletas apresentaram uma distribuição de gordura equilibrada entre os segmentos e tronco. Conclui-se que os atletas brasileiros de powerlifting apresentam magnitude dos componentes corporais que divergem dos internacionais com peculiaridades nos valores de DC e PC em função da faixa etária.
