- W134528491 abstract "This article provides a brief review over the state of art concerning some factors that influence physical fitness levels in children, namely the role of body fat, physical activity and somatotype, and how physical fitness might be improved, particularly in terms of strength and cardiorespiratory fitness. The major research conclusions can be summarized as follows: (i) there are significant and positive associations between physical activity levels and physical fitness; (ii) there is a negative relationship between body fat and performances on both endurance and weightbearing tasks, whereas flexibility does not seem to differ significantly between overweight or obese children and normalweight peers. Absolute handgrip strength appears to be better in obese children; (iii) by pre� puberty there already exists a fairly stable somatotype; (iv) Endomorphic is a limiting factor in body propulsion and lifting tasks. Mesomorphic is positively associated with strength and motor performance in general. The associations for ectomorphic were the inverse of those for endomorphic and mesomorphic; (v) the boys are superior in tasks that require strength, speed and endurance, and the girls on tasks with a predominance of balance, coordination and flexibility; (vi) the girls have higher levels of body fat than boys; (vii) the boys have higher and consistent levels of physical activity than the girls; (viii) with an intensive training stimulus prepubescent children show improvements in aerobic capacity compared with controls of the same maturation; and (ix) strength training can be an effective and safe way for enhancing muscle strength in prepubescent children." @default.
