Physical activity and nutritional status among secondary school girls and boys

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the overall level of physical activity and the nutritional status based on the body mass index among secondary school girls and boys and to determine their prevalence at this age. The sample included 1033 boys and 807 girls from secondary schools in the Istrian Region. The results are presented as averages and standard deviations, as well as percentages, and the significance of differences was tested with the Student’s T- test for independent samples at the significance level of p < 0, 05. We obtained a significant connection between physical activity and nutritional status (p=0, 02 girls ; p=0, 00 boys), 70% of girls and 63% of boys are physical inactive, while only 72% of girls and 76% of boys fall into the category of normal weight. By introducing high-quality programs for physical activity which will contribute to increasing the physical activity of girls and boys of this age, we can also contribute to the optimization of their body weight. Considering the established prevalence of physical activity and the nutritional status, we should encourage the creation and testing of physical activity programs and choose the optimal ones for the implementation in the educational system. Such programs are a direct contribution to the health of young people.
