Abstract

A person's physical fitness is essential for sports practice or competition. A good of energy and carbohydrates intake can improve human physical fitness. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between energy and carbohydrate intake with the physical fitness of adolescent students who practice soccer. This study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of 65 adolescent students in Surakarta. The analysis used in this study is the Spearman Rank test. The results showed a connection between energy intake and physical fitness (p=0.043). The r-value is -0.252, indicating that the correlation is weak. The negative connection suggests that the link between variables is inversely proportional, which means that the higher the energy intake, the lower the physical fitness of adolescent students. Furthermore, no correlation was found between carbohydrate intake and physical fitness (p=0.746). It is principal to broaden the information on balanced human nutrition, specifically energy and carbohydrate intakes, for adolescent students to achieve paramount physical fitness.Irma Kristiana
