The objective of this study is are to examine the association of preadolescent obesity using body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) with health-related physical fitness components.
Grades 4 to 6 students in 2 private schools in Manila were included in this study. Height, weight, WC, and BMI were obtained. Physical fitness field tests were sit-and-reach test, 1-minute sit-ups, standing broad jump, 40-m sprint, and 20-m shuttle run.
Obese subjects had poorer scores in the field tests except in the sit-and-reach test. BMI and WC were significantly negatively associated with all the physical fitness parameters, except for the 40-m sprint where positive correlation was observed, and in the sit-and-reach test where no correlation was seen.
In the management of preadolescent overweight and obesity, exercise programs should therefore be designed toward enhancing these fitness parameters, while not sacrificing enjoyment and creativity.
本研究旨在探讨青少年前期肥胖（通过体重指数 [BMI] 和腰围 [WC] 评估）与健康相关身体素质成分的关系。
本研究纳入马尼拉 2 所私立学校的 4 至 6 年级学生。测量了身高、体重、WC 和 BMI，并进行了身体素质的现场测试，包括坐-前伸测试、1 分钟仰卧起坐、立定跳远、40 米冲刺和 20 米穿梭跑。
肥胖组的现场测试得分较差，除了坐-前伸测试外。BMI 和 WC 与所有身体素质参数呈显著负相关，除了 40 米冲刺呈正相关，以及在坐-前伸测试中没有相关性。
在青少年前期超重和肥胖的管理中，因此应设计锻炼计划来提高这些身体素质参数，同时不牺牲乐趣和创造性。
