Description

Childhood obesity prevalence is continuing to rise in developed countries, including New Zealand. The effect of increased adiposity on children’s fitness is relatively unresearched, particularly when using methods other than BMI or skinfold thickness to estimate body fatness. The purpose of the study was to examine the association between fitness and bioelectrical impedance derived body composition in children. Participants (n = 54) performed a treadmill run to exhaustion, a countermovement v...
