ResumoespanolCon el constante aumento de la poblacion femenina en el deporte, se hace importante la concienciacion y caracterizacion de la modalidad en lo que se refiere a la diferencia entre generos. En este seguimiento, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo comparar las caracteristicas morfologicas y funcionales entre genero masculino (n = 27) y femenino (n = 6) de practicantes de carreras de obstaculos (OCR). Los resultados muestran que, comparando los corredores de ambos sexos, los hombres presentan un IMC (t = 0,135, d = 0,692) y masa corporal (t = 0,001, d = 1,905) ligeramente superiores, siendo que las mujeres presentan mas masa grasa t = 0,001, d = 2,541). En cuanto a los aspectos funcionales, los practicantes masculinos obtuvieron valores significativamente superiores de RM en el back squat (t = 0,019; d = 1,120), pull-up (t = 0,001; d = 2,019) y lanzamiento de la bola medicinal (t = 0,001; d) = 3,469) en comparacion con las mujeres. Concluyendo que en general los hombres son mas resistentes, potentes, rapidos y agiles, pero con indices de fatiga superiores en comparacion con las mujeres. EnglishWith the constant increase of the female population in obstacle races in sport it is important to consider possible comparisons with men in terms of physical capacities. Thus, the present study aims to compare the morphological and functional characteristics between male (n = 27) and female (n = 6) of obstacle course running (OCR). The results show that, comparing the runners of both sexes, men have a BMI (t = 0.135, d = 0.692) and body mass (t = 0.001, d = 1.905) slightly higher, with women having more fat mass t = 0.001, d = 2,541). In terms of functional aspects, male practitioners obtained significantly higher values of MRI in the back squat (t = 0.019; d = 1,120), pull-up (t = 0.001; d = 2,019) and throwing of the medicine ball (t = 0.001; d) = 3,469) compared to women. Concluding that in general men are more resistant, powerful, fast and agile, but with higher fatigue rates compared to women.
