Effectiveness of Adapted Basketball Programs in Adolescents With Obesity (ABBA)

Effectiveness of an Adapted Basketball Program With and Without Video Support in Adolescents With Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Jul 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to evaluate the effects of different basketball training programs on adolescents with obesity. The objective is to assess how these programs influence body weight, physical fitness, motivation to exercise, and basketball skills. Three types of programs are being compared: * A specially adapted basketball program with pre-session instructional video lessons. * The same adapted program without video supplementation. * A regular basketball program without pedagogical modifications. Participants are adolescents aged 15 to 17 years with moderate obesity who will engage in one of the programs for seven weeks, with one training session per week. Body weight, physical fitness, motivation, and basketball skills will be measured before and after the intervention to determine which approach is most effective. The study aims to identify engaging and effective methods for promoting physical activity, health, and basketball skill development in adolescents with obesity.
