Introduction: The prevalence of overweight among Iranian children and adolescents is increasing for various reasons, and inactivity is one of the most important factors. Recently, the concept of physical literacy has emerged as a key concept for promoting active behavior and improving behavioral and mental health in adolescents. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a physical fitness exercise program based on physical literacy on weight loss and increasing
mental excitement of overweight female students.
Method: In this quasi-experimental study with a pre-test, post-test, and control group design, 32 overweight female high school students (12 to 17 years old) were selected through purposive sampling and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups of 16 people. The experimental group engaged in physical fitness exercises based on physical literacy for 8 weeks, while the control group did not receive any intervention. The required data were collected using physical fitness tests and a questionnaire on subjective vitality and physical literacy. Data analysis was performed using dependents t testes and univariate, and multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results: The results of the research show a significant increase in the level of physical fitness, physical literacy, mental excitement and a significant decrease in the total body weight and body mass index of the subjects (p<0.05).
Discussion and conclusion: Based on the results of the study, it seems necessary to pay more attention to implementing physical literacy-based sports activities in schools to control weight and improve mental excitement, especially for overweight female students.
