Abstract Background Little is known about the progression of obesity from childhood to adolescence. This study aimed to longitudinally examine the obesity status in a cohort of children across their childhood and adolescence, and to identify the factors associated with persistent obesity. Methods The study used data from School Physical Fitness Award Scheme (SPFAS), a population-based programme in Hong Kong primary and secondary schools. Students were included if they participated in the SPFAS in both 2014 (Primary 1 and 2) and 2018 (Primary 5 and 6). Their anthropometric and physical fitness parameters were analyzed. Results A total of 18,863 students were included. The baseline prevalence of obesity was 5.7 %. After 4 years, the prevalence increased to 6.7 %. Among those with obesity at baseline, 35.3 % remained obese after 4 years. The addition of baseline physical fitness level did not improve the prediction for persistent obesity. Conclusions One-third of obese students in junior primary school remained to be obese into adolescence. Their baseline physical fitness level did not improve the predictive value for future obesity. Further studies should investigate the prognostic factors that may influence the natural course of childhood obesity.

Thermoregulatory Reactions

The relationship between the physical fitness level (maximal O2 consumption, VO2max) and thermoregulatory reactions was studied in 17 adult males submitted to an acute cold exposure. Standard cold tests were performed in nude subjects, lying for 2 h in a climatic chamber at three ambient air temperatures (10, 5, and 1 degrees C). The level of physical fitness conditioned the intensity of thermoregulatory reactions to cold. For all subjects, there was a direct relationship between physical fitness and 1) metabolic heat production, 2) level of mean skin temperature (Tsk), 3) level of skin conductance, and 4) level of Tsk at the onset of shivering. The predominance of thermogenic or insulative reactions depended on the intensity of the cold stress: insulative reactions were preferential at 10 degrees C, or even at 5 degrees C, whereas colder ambient temperature (1 degree C) triggered metabolic heat production abilities, which were closely related to the subject's physical fitness level. Fit subjects have more efficient thermoregulatory abilities against cold stress than unfit subjects, certainly because of an improved sensitivity of the thermoregulatory system.

Physical fitness is one of the important components in doing any activities. The sport activity is closely related to the achievements that cannot be separated from several factors and one of them is physical fitness. Related to this issue, the physical fitness of basketball club members in Universitas Teknorat Indonesia has not been known yet. Therefore, this study aims to measure the physical fitness level of basketball club members in Universitas Teknorat Indonesia. This study is a qualitative descriptive study by surveying basketball members. The subject of this study is 30 members of basketball club in Universitas Teknorat Indonesia. The data collecting technique used in this study is TKJI instrument consisting of 5 item tests, they are 50-meter run test, pull up, sit up, vertical jump, and run 1,2 KM. Descriptive statistical analysis with percentages is employed in this research as the data analysis technique. The result of this study shows that the physical fitness levels of basketball club members in Universitas Teknorat Indonesia are 26,66% for 8 members, 53,3% of medium classification for 16 members, 20,1% of less classification for 6 members, and none of the members has an excellent and poor classification. Thus, the result of the physical fitness level test for members of basketball club in Universitas Teknorat Indonesia can be categorized at a medium level.Keywords: Physical Fitness, Test, Run, Push Up, Sit Up, Vertical Jump

This study aims to determine the physical fitness of the fourth grade students of SDN Puhrubuh 1 and MI Mambaul Hikam in Kediri Regency academic year 2016/2017.This study uses quantitative approach with test survey technique. The population is 24 students infourth grade in SD Negeri Puhrubuh I and MI Mambaul Hikam in Semen Sub-district. Sampling technique in this research uses saturated sample technique, where all population used as sample. The research instrument in this research uses test and measurement. To know the physical fitness of the students the researchers performed the Tests of Physical Fitness Indonesia (TKJI). Data analysis, the results of the physical fitness level of elementary school students Puhrubuh 1 and MI Mambaul Hikam, there were 11 or 45,83% students who were included in the medium category, 9 or 37,50% students were included in the poor category, 2 or 8,33% students were included in both categories with percentage of, 2 or 8,33% students were included in the category of the least ones. According to the research results and percentage descriptive analysis, it can be concluded that physical fitness of fourth grade students of SDN Puhrubuh I and MI Mambaul Hikam 2016/2017 school year in the category medium reached as many as 11 or 45,83% students.
