Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the impact of neuromuscular exercises (NE) and local-indigenous games (LIG) on the static and dynamic Balance of Obese children. Methods: Thirty Obese children were randomly assigned to NE (n=15, mean age 10. 47±2. 1 years, body mass index (BMI) 29. 15±3. 01 kg/m2) or LIG (n=15, mean age 10. 67±1. 52 years, body mass index (BMI) 29. 45±3. 41 kg/m2) groups. Both groups underwent 12 training sessions, during which dynamic and static Balance were measured with the Biodex device before and after training. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and independent t-test were used to compare Balance indices between the two groups. Results: No significant differences were observed in static anterior-posterior Balance between NE (0. 82±0. 10) and LIG (0. 68±0. 09). Similarly, no significant differences were found in static lateral-medial Balance (NE: 0. 82±0. 10,LIG: 0. 68±0. 09) (P>0. 05). Moreover, the dynamic anterior-posterior Balance did not differ significantly between NE (0. 79±0. 08) and LIG (0. 97±0. 26) as well as the dynamic lateral-medial Balance did not differ significantly (NE: 0. 74±0. 10,LIG: 0. 93±0. 15) (P>0. 05). Conclusion: This study suggests that both NE and LIG are effective in improving Balance indices in Obese children. However, no significant differences were observed between the two interventions.
