The aim of this study was to assess the level of physical fitness and sedentary children with
disabilities included in Kinshasa. One hundred-thirty children were included in
this study, 70 with intellectual
disability (ID, age: 12.4 ± 4 years) and 60
without ID (age: 11.6 ± 4 years). Flexibility, explosive strength, grip
strength, abdominal endurance, and cardiorespiratory endurance tests were used.
They are supplemented by the measurement of anthropometric characteristics. Measurements
of muscular strength endurance, isometric force, walking distance and
cardiorespiratory endurance was significantly higher in comparison with ID (p<0.05).
The muscular strength endurance, isometric strength walking distance and cardiorespiratory
endurance of girls was significantly lower than those of the control group (p
<0.05). It is clear from this study that the cardiorespiratory and muscular
endurance of children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities is
inferior to those of children without intellectual disabilities regardless of
the type of children.
