Abstract

The article focuses on the study on the impact of handgrip strength (HG) or cardiovascular fitness (CVF) in modifying the associations between birth weight and body compositions in adolescents. The study initially assesses waist circumference, percentage of body fat and the positive association of the respondents' body weight. Results are included, concluding that high birth weight may have a healthy programming effect on body composition in those adolescents with high fitness level.
