The Effect of Yoga on the Fitness of Children

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of yoga on physical fitness among healthy primary school children using a randomized control design. A total of 52 children, ages 8-13, will be randomly assigned to either the Yoga Group or the Control Group. Participants will be assessed using the EUROFIT Test Battery as the primary outcome measure. The Yoga Group will do 45-minute yoga sessions twice a week for 10 weeks, while the Control Group will not receive any intervention. Outcome assessments will be repeated at the end of the 10-week intervention period.

Clinical Trial Description

This investigation is a randomized controlled trial designed to assess the physical fitness levels among primary school-age children subjected to diverse yoga interventions, comparing them with the outcomes observed in a control group devoid of such interventions.The study encompasses a 10-week intervention phase, during which participants undergo evaluation at two specific time points: Initial assessment (M1), conducted one week preceding the commencement of the exercise program, and subsequent evaluation (M2), executed one week post the conclusion of the program.Anthropometric measurements will determine the height of the participants using a non-elastic measuring tape (SECA brand) attached to the wall. Body Mass Index (BMI) will be calculated with the Tanita MC-180MA III device.The physical fitness of children will be measured with the Eurofit test battery. ;
