ABSTRACT
Structured exergaming with prescribed moderate intensity physical activity has reduced adiposity among adolescents. The extent to which adolescents reduce when allowed self-select level is not known.The objective of the study was examine influence on adolescent girls' body composition and cardiovascular risk factors.This randomized controlled trial assigned 41 overweight obese girls aged 14 18 years group-based dance (36 h over 3 months) or a self-directed care control condition. Body size were measured by anthropometry, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry [%fat bone mineral density {BMD}] magnetic resonance imaging. Cardiovascular factors included blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose insulin.Attrition 5%. Using analysis covariance controlling for baseline value, age race, there no significant condition differences. Per protocol (attended >75%), intervention group significantly decreased abdominal subcutaneous increased trunk spine BMD (ps < 0.05). (>2600 steps/session), leg %fat total 0.05).Exergaming fat those who adhered. Further research required before recommended in clinical settings.
