Abstract

Objective: Explore the correlation and predictive power of health physical fitness on health-promoting lifestyle of adolescents to provide an important reference for reform in middle school physical education classroom teaching.Methods: Taking some junior and senior high school students in Nanchong City of Sichuan Province as survey objects, a stratified random sampling method was used to carry out a health/fitness test and conduct a questionnaire survey. SPSS17.0, amos 21.0, and other statistical analysis software were used to process the relevant data.Results: (1) Male adolescents had 14.4% predictive power for their overall health-promoting lifestyle through the combined effects of cardiopulmonary endurance, muscle strength, and explosive strength, while female adolescents had 16.8% predictive power for their overall health-promoting lifestyle through the combined effects of cardiopulmonary endurance, flexibility, and body mass index (BMI). (2) Ten percent of the variation in the health-promoting lifestyle of men under 14 years old was caused by the combined effects of muscle endurance and muscle strength, while 14.4% of the variation in the health-promoting lifestyle of female adolescents was caused by the combined effects of muscle endurance, muscle strength, flexibility, and cardiopulmonary endurance. (3) Some 10.9 and 17.6% of the variation in health-promoting lifestyle of male and female adolescents aged between 14 and 17 was caused by the combined effects of cardiopulmonary endurance, muscle strength, and flexibility, respectively. (4) Some 20.7% of the variation in health promoting lifestyle of male adolescents aged 17 years or above was caused by cardiopulmonary endurance, explosive force, and muscle endurance, while 16.8% of the variation in health-promoting lifestyle of female adolescents was caused by the combined effect of cardiopulmonary endurance, BMI, and muscle endurance.Conclusion: Health and physical fitness of adolescents can significantly predict their health-promoting lifestyle, and the predictive power and typical correlation between them are affected by demographic factors.

Highlights

  • Fitness refers to the ability of body to adapt to life, sports, and environment, and consists of two parts: fitness for healthy body and fitness for competitive sports [1, 2]

  • Results: [1] Male adolescents had 14.4% predictive power for their overall health-promoting lifestyle through the combined effects of cardiopulmonary endurance, muscle strength, and explosive strength, while female adolescents had 16.8% predictive power for their overall health-promoting lifestyle through the combined effects of cardiopulmonary endurance, flexibility, and body mass index (BMI). [2] Ten percent of the variation in the health-promoting lifestyle of men under 14 years old was caused by the combined effects of muscle endurance and muscle strength, while 14.4% of the variation in the health-promoting lifestyle of female adolescents was caused by the combined effects of muscle endurance, muscle strength, flexibility, and cardiopulmonary endurance

  • 1) This study found that men over 17 years old mainly change their health-promoting lifestyle through cardiopulmonary endurance, explosive power, and muscle endurance, while women mainly rely on cardiopulmonary endurance, BMI, and muscle endurance
