Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of global mortality, and the risk factor for cardiovascular disease is associated with atherosclerotic progression, not only in youth but also in early adulthood. Researchers point out that there is a need to identify effective interventions that can modulate such risk factors early in life for the primary prevention of atherosclerosis. Objective: To identify the existing physical activity protocols that can be optimized for the health of children and adolescents within the school environment. Methodological path: The present is a systematic review of the scientific literature in which research results obtained from articles found in the following online databases were generated: PUBMED, SciELO, Capes Portal, and Virtual Health Library. After stratifying the selected studies, a final sample of 7 studies was obtained. Results: Among the findings in the research, two types of different physical activity protocols are included: the first being resistance training protocols and the second being high-intensity interval training, which included trial researches and clinical trials, in which the adolescents participated in the two aforementioned training sessions. There were also studies in which the student performed the protocol of continuous moderate-intensity exercises and received nutritional counseling. There were also programs carried out in several schools that encourage the practice of physical activity at school to improve the cardiorespiratory fitness of adolescents. Conclusion: The study demonstrates the need for research that establishes regional intraschool activity protocols capable of impacting the reduction of cardiovascular risk, and preventing future health complications of these adolescents, such as acute myocardial infarctions and strokes, especially in the school environment since it is the place where this population gathers for the longest time, and healthy lifestyle habits should be promoted in this space.
