- NCT05741879

- Brief Summary
Physical inactivity is the fourth most important risk factor for mortality worldwide and it contributes to weight gain and obesity. On the contrary, it is established that regular physical activity is a prevention and managerial factor of these non-communicable diseases. Therefore, the goal of this study is to design and evaluate the effectiveness of a 12-week physical exercise and lifestyle improvement training program carried out in a family environment, through a web platform, and with "online" supervision. This platform will improve the physical conditioning and adherence to PE in a "family environment", and to promote good development of the child through physical activities and exercises that can be done as a family at home and/or outside.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in 24-h movement behaviors (accelerometers) sedentary time. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week During their visit to Navarrabiomed, participants will receive a (GENEActiv, Activinsights, Kimbolton, UK) accelerometer that will objectively measure their 24-hour movement behaviors (physical activity, sedentary behaviors, and sleep). The participants will wear the accelerometer for seven consecutive days. Additionally, this accelerometer data will be supplemented with a diary to validate sleep time and (non)wear time.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in executive function. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Measured with "Early Tools" games (Years Toolbox YET-2017).
Changes in health-related physical fitness. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Health-related physical fitness measured, among other tests from the PREFIT battery, with the 20-meter shuttle run test, the handgrip test and the 4x10 speed agility test.
Changes in quality of life. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Kiddy-KINDL will be used to assess the health-related quality of life in children.
Changes in body composition. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Body composition measured with bioelectrical impedance (fat mass and body mass).
Changes in Basic Motor Skills. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Measured with the MOBAK-KG Battery with tests such as the long jump or balance over an inverted beam. MOBAK-KG sum score ranging from 0 (lowest basic motor competencies) to 16 points (highest basic motor competencies).
Changes in muscle composition. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Muscle composition measured with ultrasound of the thigh/quadriceps/recto femoral.
Changes in 24-h movement behaviors (self-reported). Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Self-report of physical activity levels and sedentary behaviors in youth will assessed by the Youth Activity Profile - Spain. In this questionnaire, a rating scale is used with a score from 1 to 5 in which, in the first two sections, "1" indicates low intensity and frequency of physical activity and "5" indicates high intensity and frequency of physical activity; while, in the third section, "1" indicates a low amount of sedentary behaviors and "5" an excess of them.
Changes in Child Self-Regulation & Behavior. Baseline, 12 Week, and 24 Week Measured with CSBQ (Child Self-Regulation \& Behavior Questionnaire). Parents will be asked to think about their child's behavior during the past 6 months, and to choose whether each statement was: Not true (1), Somewhat true (2), Certainly true (3), or Can't say (4).
