Adiposity is related to decrements in cardiorespiratory fitness in obese and normal‐weight children

Obese children are typically less physically active than their normal-weight peers and are often assumed to be 'unfit'.Investigate the relationships between adiposity, physical activity levels and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in obese and normal-weight children. A secondary aim was to examine obese/normal-weight differences in CRF.Obese (N = 107) and normal-weight (N = 132) 10-13-year-olds participated. Fat-free mass (FFM), percent fat,...
