The purpose of this research is to determine and compare morphofunctional characteristics and body traits of male juvenile sambo wrestlers, who live in the southern and northern areas of Republic Altai, Russia. The sample included 65 males, practicing sambo wrestling on a regular basis. The research protocol included anthropometric examinations (height, weight, and chest circumference) using a standard anthropometric measurement methods. Collected data of somatic characteristics were converted into Quetelet Index for BMI; the somatotypes were identified by using Chernorutskiy’s classification. Evaluation of constitutional type was based on the ratio of height, weight, and thoracic circumference. Sambo athletes from the northern part of Republic Altai are taller and have more body mass and larger chest circumference in comparison to those from the southern part of Republic Altai. The height of athletes from the north is 6.1 cm higher than of those from the south (174.4±1.66 cm vs 168.3±1.12 cm, р<0,001). Body mass of sambo athletes from the north is 6.2 kg bigger than of those from the south (67.8±1.97 kg vs 61.6±1.12 kg, р<0.05). The chest circumference of athletes from the north is 3.7 cm larger (88.5±1.33 cm vs 82.4±0.98 cm). Values of Pignet Index show that the participants from the north have predominantly hypersthenic body type, while normosthenic and “average” body type is mostly represented among sportsmen from the south (p<0.05) Thus, the sambo athletes from the north are characterized by significantly higher anthropometric features – height, weight, and chest circumference. Northern participants have predominantly hypersthenic body type while asthenic and normosthenic types are more often observed among the participants from the southern area.
