Brief Summary

The randomized controlled trial will compare the effects of a High-intensity interval training (HIIT) protocol versus a HIIT plus plyometric training in the muscle-tendon structure function and metabolism of the pediatric population with obesity at different biological maturational stages (pre-to-age peak velocity \[APHV\] and post-APHV). Both groups perform baseline evaluations of the main and secondary outcomes and receive the intervention for twelve weeks, three times per week. Once the interventions are completed, the participants undergo the same evaluations they performed at baseline.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Pediatric population with obesity determined by the body mass index by z-score (BMI-z) ≥ 2 standard deviations (SD) and ≤ 3.5 SD of the median for age and sex. * Pediatric population with -1 to -3 APHV (pre-APHV) and +1 to +3 APHV (post-APHV). Exclusion Criteria: * Cognitive Disabilities. * Musculoskeletal condition that prevents regular physical activity. * Severe heart diseases that contraindicate the practice of physical activity. * Individuals who perform supervised exercise in the past six months.
