Abstract
This study evaluates the adequacy of energy and nutrient and determines its relationship with young football athletes' nutritional status. This study is an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional design. The subjects are 21 male football athletes of the Central Java Student Sports Education and Training Center and measured their body weight and body height and determined their nutritional status (BMI-for-age and body fat percentage). Dietary pattern as energy and nutrients adequacy was obtained using a semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire. The results showed that the energy adequacy level was significantly related to BMI-for-age (p=0.030) but not related to body fat percentage (p=0.733). The adequacy of nutrients (carbohydrates, fats, proteins) were not related to BMI-for-age (p=0.086; 0.173; 0.322) and body fat percentage (p=0.289; 0.440; 0.784). It can be concluded that the energy and nutrients adequacy shows a significant relationship with the nutritional status of young football athletes of Central Java's Province.
