ABSTRACT
Introduction: The associations between Body Mass Index and child agility are not
well understood in the literature.
Objective: To analyze the association between Body Mass Index levels and agility
in children and adolescents.
Methods: cross-sectional study with volunteers aged 10 to 14 years. Separated
into: normal weight group (PN= 22), overweight/obese group (EP/OB= 22). All of
them underwent anthropometric and agility measurements. Stature and body mass
were measured to determine Body Mass Index using the suggestion of the World
Health Organization. To measure agility, the Shutle Run test was used because it
requires poor motor skills and good reliability. In the week preceding the definitive measures, the volunteers were familiar with the procedures and the execution of
the tests. For all the statistical calculations it adopted the level of significance of
(p≤ 0.05).
Results: There was a significantly positive and moderate correlation between Body
Mass Index and agility levels in the group as a whole (r= 0.46, p= 0.03). The
results of the t-test confirmed the existence of a significant difference between the
agility level of the overweight and obesity group and the normal weight group
(p< 0.05).
Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between Body Mass Index and
agility levels in the sample analyzed; and that the group classified by BMI as EP/OB
had a level of agility significantly lower than the group classified asnormal weight.
