Optimizing athletic engagement and performance of obese students: an adaptive approach through basketball in physical education by Oumayma Slimi, Oumayma Slimi, Antonella Muscella, Santo Marsigliante, Mourad Bahloul, Georgian Badicu, Abdullah F. Alghannam, Fatma Hilal Yagin

“…In contrast, no significant changes were observed in the CG before and after the intervention for any of the parameters. During matches, the EG outperformed the CG, with more successful shots (girls: p = 0.0004; boys: p = 0.012), fewer missed shots (girls: p = 0.033; boys: p = 0.046), and more successful passes (p = 0.032, η² = 0.042).DiscussionThese results demonstrate that adapted physical education programs can serve as effective interventions for improving physical activity and promoting inclusion among adolescents with obesity while also serving as a preventive measure against obesity.…”
