AB - The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of physical activity program based physical education subject at special school on the body composition of obese children with mental retardation. Therefore, this research selected 6 sixth graders with BMI more than 25 among the children with mental retardation at a special school located in J City, Jeonlabuk-do; and this study applied to them a physical activity program based physical education subject at special school three times a week for 15 weeks and gained the following results. First, the physical activity program based physical education subject of special school had significant influence in reducing weight, body fat mass, body fat percent, and BMI of obese children with mental retardation. However, it did not have significant effect on their abdominal fat percent. Second, the physical activity program based physical education subject at special school significantly increased the body composition (total body water, protein, muscle, mineral, lean body mass) of obese children with mental retardation; therefore, it is found that it has a positive influence both on weight control and on physical development of obese children with mental retardation. Accordingly, it is expected that if physical activity programs developed in consideration of the physical ability and characteristics and interest of obese children with mental retardation through analyzing health and teaching content, were applied to and practiced at schools, it would be useful for controlling weight of obese children with mental retardation.
