SummaryStudy aim: To compare two exercise training modes on the physical fitness of 10 year-old children. Material and methods: A sample of 60 schoolboys aged 10 years were randomly divided into 3 groups: Traditional (TG), trained according to the Brazilian national curricular parameters, Maturational (MG), in which the degree of difficulty of the activities was adjusted to the level of maturity of subjects, and Control group (CG). The GreulichPyle protocol was used to assess biological maturity. The following fitness tests were applied: 5×10 m shuttle run (SHR), Burpee's test (BCT), goniometric (LABIFIE) measurement of shoulder joint flexibility (SAA), horizontal shoulder flexion (HSF), shoulder joint abduction (SJA), lumbar spine flexion (LSF), hip joint extension (HJE) [10], Sargent's Jump Test (SJT), endurance shuttle run (ESR) and 50-m run. The TG and MG groups trained 16 weeks, twice weekly. Results: The only significant (p<0.05) between-group differences were found for SJA (TG >MG) and LSF (TG >CG). Conclusions: Despite the lack of clear-cut results, biological maturation combined with chronological age should be considered when applying various methodological approaches in order to encourage the engagement in physical exercises as this would have favourable carry-over effects.

Physical qualities of 13-year-old scholars who went through traditional sportive formation Fit Perf J. 2009 Nov-Dec;8(6):400-6. ;8(6):400-6. ABSTRACTIntroduction: This study had as objective to evaluate the effects of traditional methodology of sportive formation regarding the physical qualities of 13-year-old scholars, who went through a 16-week intervention. Materials and Methods:The sample consisted of 40 scholars divided into two groups (GT=20 and GC =20), as the coordination (Burpee test), explosive strength (vertical impulsion), aerobic resistance and agility (Shuttle Run test), velocity (50m) and flexibility (goniometry) were evaluated. The statistics were descriptive and inferential (t test, Wilcoxon, Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney) with p≤0.05. Results: Intergroup comparisons did not present statistically significant differences; however, in the intragroups comparisons, we found differences with regard to the explosive strength (∆%=6.85; p=0.000), coordination (∆%=13.64; p=0.000), velocity (∆%=-3.58; p=0.002), aerobic resistance (∆%=7.44; p=0.000) and flexibility EAQ (∆%=10.59; p=0.000). The same did not occur with GC. Discussion: The results showed that the use of a traditional methodology was not effective for the development of physical qualities of 13-year-old schoolchildren.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
