The 'Fat but Fit' Paradigm from a Children's Health-Related Quality of Life Perspective

摘要

Background: The fat but fit paradigm originally argues that the detrimental influence of obesity on cardiovascular risk and mortality could be counterbalanced by normal to high cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) levels. The aim of the study was to determine whether there is a relationship between categories of the fat but fit conceptual model and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in children.
