Abstract

Leading global physical activity guidelines advocate that young children need to engage in activities that strengthen musculoskeletal tissues and improve movement skill competency. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of delivering strength and conditioning as part of the physical ed...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of delivering strength and conditioning as part of the physical education curriculum on athletic motor skill competencies (AMSC), physical performance, and psychosocial factors. Forty-six school children aged 11&#x2013;14 were included in the study, and sub-divided firstly by sex and then into intervention and control groups. Intervention groups received nine lessons of strength and conditioning based activities over a six-week period, while the control groups continued with traditional physical education curricula.

No changes were observed in the intervention groups TJA and only trivial and small non-significant changes in standing long jump performance. Significant increases in motivation of the male intervention group occurred. Strength and conditioning integrated in physical education can improve AMSC in short-term interventions.</abstract><type>Journal Article</type><journal>Sports</journal><volume>8</volume><journalNumber>10</journalNumber><paginationStart>138</paginationStart><paginationEnd/><publisher>MDPI AG</publisher><placeOfPublication/><isbnPrint/><isbnElectronic/><issnPrint/><issnElectronic>2075-4663</issnElectronic><keywords>physical literacy; physical training; children; intervention; physical activity</keywords><publishedDay>17</publishedDay><publishedMonth>10</publishedMonth><publishedYear>2020</publishedYear><publishedDate>2020-10-17</publishedDate><doi>10.3390/sports8100138</doi><url/><notes/><college>COLLEGE NANME</college><department>Engineering and Applied Sciences School</department><CollegeCode>COLLEGE CODE</CollegeCode><DepartmentCode>EAAS</DepartmentCode><institution>Swansea University</institution><apcterm/><lastEdited>2020-12-14T14:45:37.4548388</lastEdited><Created>2020-10-19T12:16:00.7031009</Created><path><level id="1">Faculty of Science and Engineering</level><level id="2">School of Aerospace, Civil, Electrical, General and Mechanical Engineering - Sport and Exercise Sciences</level></path><authors><author><firstname>Ben J.</firstname><surname>Pullen</surname><order>1</order></author><author><firstname>Jon L.</firstname><surname>Oliver</surname><order>2</order></author><author><firstname>Rhodri S.</firstname><surname>Lloyd</surname><order>3</order></author><author><firstname>Camilla</firstname><surname>Knight</surname><orcid>0000-0001-5806-6887</orcid><order>4</order></author></authors><documents><document><filename>55450__18448__10408d7b58f24691b29f9c5e2942b83c.pdf</filename><originalFilename>55450.pdf</originalFilename><uploaded>2020-10-19T12:17:18.0022278</uploaded><type>Output</type><contentLength>413314</contentLength><contentType>application/pdf</contentType><version>Version of Record</version><cronfaStatus>true</cronfaStatus><documentNotes>&#xA9; 2020 by the authors.
