Integration of Obese Children in Physical Education Sessions: An Exploratory Study

Abstract: We investigated the effect of the role of the joker in children with obesity (OCs) on integration and physio-psychological responses during small-sided games (SSG) training programs. Sixteen OC students (age 13.8 ± 0.73 years) performed training programs consisting of two sessions a week for three weeks. The experimental protocol consisted of 16 teams of 4 children (3 of normal weight and 1 OC). The 16 teams were divided into 2 groups, one with an OC playing as the joker (SSG-J) and the other group with OC pla… Show more

“…However, sensations of pleasure are inversely related to the intensity of the exercise. Feelings of high exercise intensity, perceived difficulty, and frustration influence overweight students' activity during physical education lessons [ 28 , 30 ]; therefore, the enjoyment experienced by children and adolescents is greater when they are taught physical education games compared to standard teaching [ 46 ].
