Body growth and physical aptitude related to students´ health
Abstract
Current analysis investigates indexes of physical aptitude related to health and body growth in school children and adolescents. Transversal study includes 156 children and adolescents (119 girls and 37 boys) and test battery Proesp – BR 2012. Data were analyzed by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney and Binary Logistic Regression tests (p<0.05). It should be underscored that school children aged 14 - 17 years have 2.713 chances more to be overweight/obesity when compared to schoolchildren ages 10 - 13 years. Further, schoolchildren with better results in the abdominal test have a greater 3.6% protection than those who are not overweight/obesity. Results show that 14 - 17 year-old children have greater chances in developing overweight and obesity when compared to those within a lower age bracket. Better results in the abdominal test are a protecting factor for these conditions.References
