“…This study also reveals, for the first time in Colombia, the normalized percentiles of muscular and cardiorespiratory performance by age and sex; values that can be used as a reference in the assessment of physical fitness concerning the nutritional status and body composition in the school population. In summary, and as established by different authors (Pacheco et al, 2016;Secchi et al, 2016), in the studied population, higher values of muscular and cardiorespiratory fitness were observed in the male school children evaluated, highlighting the significant increase as age increases, a difference explained mainly by the different factors of biological maturation.…”

Objectives: The purposes of this research were: 1. To establish reference values for cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular fitness. 2. To establish the relationship between anthropometric characteristics and physical fitness parameters. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional, multicentre, analytical study; students aged between 12 and 18 years from 10 Colombian cities were evaluated. The sample was 3455 students with a reliability of 95%, a statistical power of 84%, and an expected correlation of 0.30. Anthropometric variables, General Strength Index (GSI), and Cardiopulmonary Capacity were taken into account. A two-way analysis of variance (two-way ANOVA) was performed with Bonferroni post hoc adjustments. A Box-Cox Cole and Green (BCCG) lest squares method (LMS) distribution was performed. Results: A higher performance was found on males in all tests performed, and a higher average body mass index (BMI), waist-height index, and fat percentage on the females. Weak to moderate negative correlations were identified between muscular and cardiopulmonary fitness and anthropometric variables. Additionally, significant differences were identified between GSI with waist circumference and fat percentage. Conclusion: Cardiorespiratory fitness assessment and GSI are tools to be considered as a complement to the evaluation of academic programs with school health prevention objectives. Resumen: Objetivos: Los objetivos de esta investigación fueron: 1. Establecer valores de referencia para la aptitud cardiorrespiratoria y la aptitud muscular. 2. Establecer la relación entre características antropométricas y parámetros de aptitud física. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio analítico, transversal, multicéntrico; Se evaluó a estudiantes de entre 12 y 18 años de 10 ciudades colombianas. La muestra fue de 3455 estudiantes con una confiabilidad del 95%, un poder estadístico del 84% y una correlación esperada de 0.30. Se tomaron en cuenta variables antropométricas, Índice de Fuerza General (GSI) y Capacidad Cardiopulmonar. Se realizó un análisis de varianza bidireccional (ANOVA bidireccional) con ajustes post hoc de Bonferroni. Se realizó el cálculo de los percentiles normalizados a partir del método de mínimos cuadrados (LMS) de Box-Cox Cole y Green (BCCG). Resultados: Se encontró un mayor rendimiento en los hombres en todas las pruebas realizadas, sin embargo, se evidencio un índice de masa corporal (IMC) promedio, índice de cintura y porcentaje de grasa más altos en las mujeres. Se identificaron correlaciones negativas débiles a moderadas entre la aptitud muscular y cardiopulmonar y las variables antropométricas. Además, se identificaron diferencias significativas entre GSI con la circunferencia de cintura y el porcentaje de grasa. Conclusión: La evaluación de la aptitud cardiorrespiratoria y el GSI son herramientas a considerar como un complemento a la evaluación de los programas académicos con objetivos de prevención en salud escolar.

RESUMEN.Los datos disponibles en la literatura cientíica informan de un importante descenso en los niveles de condición física en personas jóvenes. El objetivo fue analizar las diferencias en la condición física en función del contexto poblacional (rural y urbano) en un estudio descriptivo-transversal realizado con 303 escolares españoles de 8-11 años. Después de recibir el consentimiento informado, se valoró su salud relacionada con la condición física a través de la Batería ALPHA-Fitness. La prueba T detectó diferencias signiicativas en la fuerza muscular, capacidad aeróbica, condición física general e IMC en función del área de residencia, y que estas diferencias se mantienen cuando se realiza el análisis diferenciado por sexo. Los resultados de este estudio sugieren que los escolares que viven en áreas urbanas presentan un mejor estado de condición física, así como también un índice de masa corporal superior que los escolares de áreas rurales.PALABRAS CLAVE. Estilo de Vida, Promoción de la Salud, Ejercicio Físico, Condición Física, Rural, Urbano. Rural-urban diferences in schoolchildren's physical itness from Murcia (Spain)ABSTRACT. he available data report in the scientiic literature show a signiicant decrease of physical itness levels in young people. he aim of this study is to analyze the diferences in the physical itness based on the population context (rural and urban) in a descriptive-transversal study carried out with 303 Spanish primary schoolchildren aged 8-11 years old. Ater receiving the informed consent, we assessed health-related physical itness through ALPHA-Fitness Test Battery. he T test detected signiicant diferences in muscle strength, aerobic capacity, overall itness and BMI based on the area of residence, and that these diferences are maintained with the diferential analysis by sex. he results of this study suggest that schoolchildren living in urban areas have a better state of itness and a higher body mass index.

“…To date, there are no established reference cut-off points for MF, assessed using either handgrip strength or SLJ. Previous studies have shown that participants with low MF (lowest quartile) have the poorest cardio-metabolic profile [ 43 , 44 ]; therefore, suggesting that participants falling below the threshold for this quartile could be considered “unhealthy”. Taking this into account, we have used the 20 th percentile as a threshold for unhealthy MF, as reported in adolescents from Europe [ 40 ].…”

Body Composition, Nutritional Profile and Muscular Fitness Affect Bone Health in a Sample of Schoolchildren from Colombia: The Fuprecol Study

et al. 2017

The objective of the present study is to investigate the relationships between body composition, nutritional profile, muscular fitness (MF) and bone health in a sample of children and adolescents from Colombia. Participants included 1118 children and adolescents (54.6% girls). Calcaneal broadband ultrasound attenuation (c-BUA) was obtained as a marker of bone health. Body composition (fat mass and lean mass) was assessed using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Furthermore height, weight, waist circumference and Tanner stage were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Standing long-jump (SLJ) and isometric handgrip dynamometry were used respectively as indicators of lower and upper body muscular fitness. A muscular index score was also computed by summing up the standardised values of both SLJ and handgrip strength. Dietary intake and degree of adherence to the Mediterranean diet were assessed by a 7-day recall questionnaire for food frequency and the Kidmed questionnaire. Poor bone health was considered using a z-score cut off of ≤−1.5 standard deviation. Once the results were adjusted for age and Tanner stage, the predisposing factors of having a c-BUA z-score ≤−1.5 standard deviation included being underweight or obese, having an unhealthy lean mass, having an unhealthy fat mass, SLJ performance, handgrip performance, and unhealthy muscular index score. In conclusion, body composition (fat mass and lean body mass) and MF both influenced bone health in a sample of children and adolescents from Colombia. Thus promoting strength adaptation and preservation in Colombian youth will help to improve bone health, an important protective factor against osteoporosis in later life.
