“…Hand grip strength and the standing long jump have proven to be a good validity criterion, compared to laboratory tests [34,58 ], suggesting that they are appropriate measures of muscle strength, especially in the rst years of schooling.…”

“…Insulin resistance was diagnosed if HOMA ≥ 2.1, which corresponds to > 75th percentile of the observed quartile in Chilean children [ 33 ]. Cholesterol, HDL and triglycerides were determined by dry analytical methodology (Vitros, Johnson & Johnson, Clinical Diagnostics Inc.) using the USA population as a reference (Non-HDL cholesterol > 145 mg/dL; HD < 40 mg/dL and triglycerides > 130 mg/dL) [ 34 ]. The remaining blood was eliminated.…”

“…Cardiorespiratory tness was measured using a sub-maximal test, the six-minute walk test (6MWT) [ 38 , 39 ]. The 6MWT, hand grip strength and standing long jump without momentum have been shown to be valid, reliable, and feasible for health monitoring purposes at the population level [34,42]. The 6MWT results were expressed as the maximal distance (metres) divided by height because leg length was not assessed [ 40 ].…”

Background Obesity and lower physical fitness levels in children are related to the development of cardiometabolic risk. The objective of the study was to determine the relationship of cardio-metabolic risk and physical fitness in school children from Santiago de Chile. Methods Physical fitness was assessed as cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength. Fitness was measured using the six-minute-walk-test and muscle strength was assessed by hand grip and standing lung jump. Overweight (≥ 1 SD) and obesity (≥ 2 SD) were determined by body mass index. A cross sectional study was done in 452 children (185 boys and 267 girls), age range (7–9 years). Cardio-metabolic-risk (serum glucose, triglycerides, HDL, insulin) and waist for height ratio was expressed as z score. Data was analyzed using bivariate analysis and multiple and logistic regression. Results A 21% were obese and 27% overweight. Children with high body fat and low cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength had an OR of 6.8-fold (IC 95% 3.4 to 13.9) cardiometabolic risk z-score, compared to those most fit. Conclusion School children with higher body fat and lower physical fitness had increased cardio-metabolic-risk-score. No significant difference in cardio-metabolic risk in the non-obese children was found independent of their physical fitness.
