Comparison of 'Burn 2 Learn' and Routine Physical Activity Program on Wellbeing, Cardiorespiratory and Muscular Fitness Among Students
Engaging in physical activity holds significant benefits for adolescents and contribute to their overall health and well-being. Unfortunately, the younger generation often does not prioritize this aspect of their lifestyle. Schools offer and ideal platform to actively involve and encourage our youth in regular physical activities.
A total of 102 students will be selected from Beaconhouse International School Lahore, who will be passed through screening to fulfill the demands of the inclusion criteria. After selecting students will be randomly assigned into two groups, Group A the 'Burn 2 Learn' group (n=51) and Group B routine physical activity group (n=51). Students in the 'Burn 2 Learn' group will participate in three sessions per week of maximum 20 minutes for 10 weeks. In contrast, students in the routine physical activity group will continue with their routine physical activity implemented within the school. Evaluations of cardiorespiratory fitness using the 20m shuttle run test, wellbeing using the Warwick Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale and muscular fitness using the 90-degree pushup test and standing long jump test, will be taken at baseline and after 10 weeks
The 'Burn 2 Learn' program is a novel approach that integrates physical activity with cognitive engagement in a structured curriculum. The aim of this randomized control trial is to compare the 'Burn 2 Learn' program with routine physical activity on student's cardiorespiratory fitness, wellbeing and muscular fitness.
