简要总结
Childhood obesity is an ongoing and increasing issue, resulting in changes in body mass which cause biomechanical alterations in the lower limbs. Exercise interventions have been effectiveness at causing positive changes to the lower limbs gait, strength and functioning but children often report lack of enjoyment from the sessions which inhibits long term changes. This intervention takes a neuromuscular exercise approach whilst considering the psychological needs of children to motivate them to participate in the intervention and physical activity.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in fat free mass
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
Bioelectrical impedance analysis of fat free mass relative to body mass
Change in physical functioning: single leg stand eyes open
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
Maximal time to maintain balance on one leg with hands on hip and free leg bent to 90degrees flexion
Change in physical activity: percentage of time spent in moderate to vigorous activity levels
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
Accelerometer data captured and time spent in moderate to vigorous level expressed as a percentage of time worn. Accelerometers worn on right side waist for one week.
Change in motivation towards physical activity
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire to measure motivation towards physical activity
Change in body fat percentage
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
Bioelectrical impedance analysis of fat mass relative to body mass
Change in body mass index (BMI)
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
BMI calculated with height measured barefoot on weight scales and height measured barefoot on Stadiometer and Z-score based on standard measures for age and gender. A reduction in BMI is a positive change.
Change in Knee 3d gait analysis
时间窗: From baseline to end of 8-week training program and to end of 8-week follow-up
3D joint angle, moment and power waveforms during stance phase. Moment and power dimensionless and normalised to body mass and leg length. Time normalised to 100% of stance and walking at a self-selected pace.
