Summary

Specifically, the project aims to pursue the following objectives:

1. To evaluate in male and female adolescents with obesity the interaction between different psycho-body aspects such as respiration - posture - self-perception and affectivity and tolerance to physical exercise;
2. To evaluate in a subgroup of male and female adolescents the effectiveness of exercises aimed at respiratory muscles and of respiratory consciousness on the parameters above indicated and on their interaction.

The final objective of this project is to define and propose "take home" specific respiratory exercises to promote greater body awareness and a condition of psychophysical well-being stable over time, creating a condition that can favor further interventions on obesity. Finally, the project aims to build solid scientific bases to insert respiratory exercise among the intervention guidelines to prevent and reduce obesity, particularly youth obesity.
