Many previous studies using scaling in sport have done so based on only one or two anthropometric characteristics, with only one study to date adopting a three\u2010dimensional approach. To apply a three\u2010dimensional allometric model to rowing ergometer performance (REP) in adolescents, and to detect whether key \u2018scaling\u2019 parameters remain stable when scaling REP both before and after a 6\u2010week training intervention. Novel three\u2010dimensional allometric models were used, incorporating body mass, stature and waist circumference (WC) to detect the most appropriate body size dimension(s) and scaling parameters associated with REP before and after a 6\u2010week training intervention. Using this more flexible and sensitive three\u2010dimensional allometry demonstrated that, following 6\u2010weeks of training, there was a change in the ideal body shape associated with REP. Before training, taller, but not heavier, adolescents performed better. After 6\u2010weeks of training, older participants with a greater body mass but smaller WC performed better. Scaling approaches are important for evaluating performance differences between individuals of differing body size. The findings from the current study (using a novel three\u2010dimensional allometry approach) emphasise that relatively subtle changes in individuals' behavioural characteristics, such as changes in their training\/fitness status, can result in quite dramatic changes in the body dimension characteristics and scaling parameters deemed to be key for performance in activities such as REP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ejsc.12216","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,2]],"date-time":"2024-11-02T16:08:32Z","timestamp":1730563712000},"page":"1865-1870","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Changes in the ideal body shape associated with adolescent rowing\u2010ergometry performance following a 6\u2010week training intervention: New scaling insights using three\u2010dimensional allometry"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Alan M.","family":"Nevill","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Education, Health and Wellbeing University of Wolverhampton  Wolverhampton UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-9532-6014","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Grace W.
