ABSTRACT
Introduction
The discussion about the impact on the physical and mental health of obese college students is a current issue. The implementation of “weight loss exercise prescription” seeks to discuss weight loss techniques and their effects, problems most faced by obese girls.
Objective
Explore the effect of sports intervention on the physical and mental health of obese female students.
Methods
20 female college students with simple obesity were selected for an 18-week intervention experiment of fitness exercise associated with long-distance running. The physical and mental health of the volunteers was measured before and after the experiment for statistical analysis.
Results
After 18 weeks of exercise, it was observed that interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, and SCL-90 scores decreased significantly, indicating that the implementation of the exercise prescription had a positive impact on the mental health of obese girls. Across the study, compared to a single exercise method, associated aerobic exercise had a significant effect on improving BMI indicators, body weight, and body fat rate in obese adolescent girls.
Conclusion
By prescribing exercise for weight loss, one can significantly improve the cardiopulmonary function of obese college students and promote physical health, manifesting in the indices of vital capacity and cardiopulmonary function.
