Interventions

Adapted physical activityother

This PA program was modified from an adapted physical activity (APA) program that designed for obesity management among adolescents with intellectual disability (ID). The aim of the APA program was to promote PA and health for people in special needs. In this study, the APA program was carefully designed based on a comprehensive pre-intervention assessment of each adolescent with ID, so that can be able to address their individual needs in learning and adaption. The APA program comprised three stages of APA training at school and each stage consisted of simple and fun endurance and strength-building exercise, at a frequency of two sessions per week, and lasting for about three months.
