Model of controlling the young woman’s obesity through physical effort, diet and psychological assistance

Abstract

The physical effort during the Physical education classes in school should be adjusted at the individual’s physical condition. The present study demonstrates that by applying a differentiated didactic technology, using specific analytical exercises structures, operational models and working algorithms to a group of overweight and obese girls, a loss of weight was obtained with a progressive evolution towards the optimal body weight, according to their age and sex. Yet, the working methodology should be individualized and associated with a low-calorie nutritional program and with psychological assistance.

Key words:

optimal weight, life style, physical activity
