Our objectives were to (a) examine feasibility and receptivity of overweight adolescents joining a community-based group fitness program and (b) test preliminary efficacy of a 12-week pilot intervention designed to promote health, fitness, and self-efficacy for the identified teens.
The 12-week fitness program for overweight adolescents was developed and included planned physical activities, nutrition classes, and goal-setting sessions. A one-group pre-/posttest study design evaluated 20 participants from grades 10 through 12 who enrolled in the program pilot study. Participants were given a wearable activity tracker that captured data using an Internet-based platform. Outcome measures included body mass index, screen time, fitness, and cardiovascular measures.
A community fitness program for overweight adolescents was successfully implemented. High school students were receptive to the intervention and reported high program satisfaction. Positive effects included measurements of strength, systolic blood pressure, weight, and screen time behaviors.
This study provides evidence to support the feasibility, acceptance, and preliminary effects of the pilot program with overweight adolescents.
我们的目标是：（a）研究超重青少年参加社区团体健身计划的可行性和接受度；（b）测试一项为期12周的试点干预措施的初步效果，该干预旨在促进已确定青少年的健康、体能和自我效能感。
为超重青少年制定了为期12周的健身计划，包括有计划的体育活动、营养课程和目标设定环节。采用单组前后测研究设计，对20名10至12年级参加该计划试点研究的参与者进行评估。为参与者配备了一个可穿戴活动追踪器，该追踪器通过基于互联网的平台收集数据。结果指标包括体重指数、屏幕使用时间、体能和心血管指标。
一项针对超重青少年的社区健身计划成功实施。高中生对该干预措施表示接受，并报告对该计划满意度很高。积极效果包括力量、收缩压、体重和屏幕使用时间行为的测量结果。
本研究为支持该试点计划对超重青少年的可行性、可接受性和初步效果提供了证据。
