- A study was conducted to analyze the physical fitness of professional beach lifeguards categorized by age groups, focusing on their ability to perform water rescues.
- Data was collected from 99 male lifeguards, including measurements of strength, body composition, and running ability on sand, with a focus on comparing younger lifeguards (20-39) to older ones (40-49).
- The results showed younger lifeguards performed better in strength and speed tests, while handgrip strength remained consistent across ages; the authors recommend specific fitness tests for lifeguard screening.
