Movi 2

Estudio Movi

abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the Movi 2 program of non-competitive recreational physical activity on adiposity and cardiometabolic risk factors in schoolchildren.

A randomized clinical trial was conducted with 712 schoolchildren aged 8 to 10 years from 20 public schools (10 assigned to the control group and 10 to the intervention group) in the province of Cuenca, Spain. The Movi 2 intervention consisted of engaging in non-competitive recreational activities based on games, with two 90-minute sessions on weekdays and one 150-minute session on Saturday mornings, from September 2010 to May 2011. In addition to increasing the volume of the intervention, more time was dedicated to strength development compared to Movi 1. Changes following the program were measured in adiposity (prevalence of overweight/obesity, body mass index (BMI), triceps skinfold thickness, body fat percentage, fat-free mass, waist circumference) and other cardiometabolic risk factors (LDL cholesterol, triglyceride/HDL cholesterol ratio, insulin, C-reactive protein, and blood pressure).

Girls in the intervention group showed a significant reduction in adiposity, with decreases in triceps skinfold thickness, body fat percentage, and waist circumference, as well as an increase in fat-free mass. Additionally, lower levels of LDL cholesterol and insulin were observed in the participants. In boys, the intervention was associated with a reduction in waist circumference and an increase in fat-free mass. The prevalence of overweight/obesity, BMI, and other risk factors did not show changes.

In conclusion, MOVI-2 proved to be a safe and effective intervention for reducing adiposity in both genders and improving the cardiometabolic risk profile in girls.
