| Resumo: | Objective: To verify the association between sex with cardiorespiratory fitness (CF) of adolescents from public and private schools.Material and methods: study with adolescents from Curitiba (n = 349) and São José dos Pinhais (n = 418), Paraná, Brazil. Teenagers reported their sex and age. Body mass index and socioeconomic status were also considered. A 20-meter test evaluated the CF. Poisson regression tested the association between sex and CF.Results: public school students were more likely to be in the healthy zone of CF (PR: 1,769; 95% CI: 1,303 - 2,403; p = 0.001). Boys from private and public schools were more likely to be in the healthy zone than girls (PR: 2,926; 95% CI: 1,578 - 5,426; p = 0.001 and PR: 4,085; 95% CI: 2,632 - 6,340; p = 0.001, respectively).Conclusion: public school students were more likely to have low CF levels. |
