Introduction: The aim of the research was to evaluate the relationship between selected body parameters and posture in a group of lower secondary school students. The formulated hypothesis assumed that body mass does not influence the posture of teenagers aged 14–16. Materials and methods: The research included a group of 73 students aged 14–16, including 42 boys and 31 girls. The research was conducted by means of a modern body posture computer analysis system – Zebris APGMS Pointer. Static indicators of body posture, as well as mobility and shape of the spine were analyzed as well. Results: The analysis of body built indicators has proven that there is not any statistical relationship between the distribution of body mass and the value of spinal curvature. What is more, it has turned out that there is a relationship between physical activity and the content of fatty tissue. Conclusion: Non-invasive monitoring of body posture as well as the parameters of body posture enables an early detection and correction of posture defects which influence human physical development and the quality of their life in the future.
