Resumo

Childhood obesity, as a consequence of sedentary habits among many other reasons, has become one of the most important health problems in the first world, causing a great impact also in Spanish children. A healthy and active lifestyle is essential, especially up to adolescence. The 5-10 Health Program is a program that has been designed with the aim of addressing overweight and obesity in school children aged 5-10 years. The aim of this research is to analyze the number of steps taken during the sessions of the 5-10 Health Program and to check whether the current physical activity recommendations are met according to the number of daily steps. Twenty schoolchildren between 5 and 10 years of age were selected. The inclusion criterion was defined as participation in 75% or more of the sessions. The weekly frequency was 2 sessions, with a session duration of 90 minutes. For the quantification of physical activity levels, an "ON step 100" pedometer was used. The results indicate an average of 6,710.52 steps during the session, which represents 61% of the number of steps a child should take during a day if the lower limit of the recommendation is considered (11,000 steps/day) and 40.67% if the upper limit of the recommendation is considered (16,500 steps/day).
