Abstract

Obesity and overweight have physical (motor skills) and psychological (motor creativity) complications in children and adolescents. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effect of exercise-based training on motor development and motor creativity of overweight students. In this semi-experimental study, which was conducted with a pre-test-post-test design, 30 overweight students aged 13 to 14 in Bakherz were selected based on voluntary participation based on the inclusion criteria and randomly assigned to two groups: the exercise training model and the traditional education model. In the pre-test phase, participants were administered the Broninex-Ozeretsky motor proficiency test and motor creativity test. In the training phase, which lasted for 12 weeks, 2 sessions per week, and each session lasted 45 to 50 minutes in the school hall, the sports training groups (Monday and Wednesday from 10 to 11 am) and traditional training groups (Sunday and Tuesday from 10 to 11 am) engaged in the relevant exercises (futsal). 48 hours after the last session, the post-test phase was conducted in the same way as the pre-test. The data were analyzed using factorial analysis of variance (2 groups in 2 measurement stages). The results showed that the sports training model significantly improved the motor development and motor creativity of overweight students. However, other results showed that traditional training did not have a significant effect on the motor development and motor creativity of overweight students. Therefore, based on the results, the sports training model may be an effective
