The objective of the study was to analyze the health-related physical condition in junior gymnasts practicing Rhythmic Gymnastics. A descriptive-transversal study was carried out involving 32 Andalusian adolescents aged 14-15 years. Body composition and physical fitness were assessed by applying the extended ALPHA-Fitness battery. Gymnasts show high values for explosive strength, manual grip and speed / agility (4x10m), where 100% of the sample is placed with values above or on average as indicated by the ALPHA-fitness battery . Regarding to aerobic capacity, it was observed that 81.25% had an average, high or very high capacity. The results of the study suggest that rhythmic gymnasts have a good health related with physical fitness, with a BMI and slightly lower fat percentage suitable for the practice of this sport.
