The purpose of this study was to
investigate the effects of sportive games on the lipid profile in some selected
branches for ten weeks applied to adolescents.
11-14 age range; A total of 52
children, 26 in the study group and 26 in the control group, participated
voluntarily in research. While the participants in the control group were only
attending physical education lessons, participants in the research group played
sport games for ten weeks, three times in a week, 60 minutes in a day different
branches. Blood samples were taken from both groups two times before and after
ten weeks of the program. Cholesterol, Triglyceride, HDL, LDL and VLDL
cholesterol levels of were determined in taken blood samples. The obtained data
were analyzed in the SPSS 22.0 Package program. Independent samples t test was
used to determine differences between groups, and Paired samples t test was
used to determine intra-group differences.
When the pretest values of the
participants were compared, there was no difference between the groups in the
values of Cholesterol, Triglyceride, HDL, LDL and VLDL Cholesterol (p>0,05), HDL cholesterol levels were different in favor of the
study group when the post test values were compared. In the intra-group
evaluations, there was no difference between the pre-post tests values of the
control group, it was determined that the research group had differences in the
levels of cholesterol and HDL cholesterol (p<0,05).
As a result, sportive games that applied throughout ten weeks to adolescents had positive
effects on lipid profile, it can be said that they may have a health promoting
role if they are made permanent.
