Resumo: | This study examined the relationships between nutritional status, physical activity, waist circumference, and fl exibility in boys. The sample comprised 74 boys (11,8 years old, SD= 1,6). The following were measured: body weight, height, waist circumference, physical activity, body fat (bioelectrical impedance) and fl exibility. Body fat percentage was calculated, and the children were classifi ed as well nourished (G1), overweight (G2), or obese (G3) according to the age and sex adjusted cutoffs described by Taylor et al.18. The statistical procedures adopted were: mean, standard deviation, analysis of variance, chi-square test, linear correlation and binary logistic regression. The level of significance was set at p < 0.05. There was a statistical difference between G3 and G1 in flexibility scores (p = 0.048). Obese and inactive boys were more than twice as likely to exhibit a poor flexibility score than well nourished and active boys, respectively (odds ratio= 2.9; p = 0.046, and 5.1; p = 0.047, respectively). This study identifi ed the existence of relationship and association between obesity, physical inactivity and poor performance in fl exibility test. |

A amostra compreendeu 74 meninos (11,8±1,6 anos). Foram medidos o peso corporal, a estatura, a circunferência de cintura, atividade física, gordura corporal (impedância bioelétrica) e flexibilidade. O percentual de gordura corporal foi calculado e os sujeitos foram classifi cados como eutróficos (G1), com sobrepeso (G2) ou obesos (G3) de acordo com a tabela específi ca para sexo e idade proposta por Taylor et al.18. Os procedimentos estatísticos adotados foram: média, desvio-padrão, análise de variância, teste qui-quadrado, correlação linear e regressão logística binária. O nível de significância foi estabelecido em p < 0.05. Houve diferenças entre G3 e G1 nos escores de fl exibilidade (p = 0,048). Garotos inativos e ou obesos, quando comparados a garotos ativos e ou eutrófi cos, possuíam mais do que duas vezes mais chances de apresentar um escore baixo de fl exibilidade (razão de chance= 2,9; p = 0,046, e 5,1; p = 0,047, respectivamente). Este estudo identificou a existência de relação e associação entre obesidade, inatividade física e fraca performance no teste de flexibilidade.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
