碩士 === 國立新竹教育大學 === 進修部體育教學碩士班 === 92 === The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the physical fitness curriculum on health-related physical fitness and blood lipids among obese elementary school children. The subjects were 40 male/female obese children, who were chosen by body mass index (BMI), divided into an experimental group and a control group. The subjects participated 50 minutes every time and twice per week through 15 weeks. The health-related physical fitness examination and blood sampling were taken before and after curriculum. The health-related physical fitness testing events included height, body weight (convert into body mass index), sit and bend forward, one-minute sit-ups with bended knees, and 800 meter running race. The blood sampling included TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, UA, and FPG. All collected data were analyzed by ANCOVA to see the health-related physical fitness and blood lipids differences between the experimental group and the control group. Theαlevel was set at .05. Following is my finding: (1) After the 15-week physical fitness curriculum, the body composition, flexibility, muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness between the experimental group and the control group reach the significant difference (p＜.05) . (2) After the 15-week physical fitness curriculum, the TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, UA, and FPG between the experimental group and the control group reach the significant difference (p＜.05) . The conclusion of this study is that the physical fitness curriculum intervention improve on the obese elementary school children’s health-related physical fitness and blood lipids.
