随机对照试验中的一项定性研究探讨了肥胖青少年参与运动治疗干预的经历。对分配接受运动治疗的参与者进行半结构化访谈。参与者表示，运动期间和运动后感觉比以前更有活力。许多参与者表示在干预后感到快乐/更快乐，并表示作为个体的自我感觉更好。大多数参与者对自己定期锻炼的能力更有信心。需要更加重视对肥胖青少年进行教育，让他们了解运动可以提供的广泛健康益处，而减肥虽然很重要，但只是其中之一。
A qualitative study nested within a randomized controlled trial explored obese adolescents' experiences of participation in an exercise therapy intervention. Semi- structured interviews were conducted with participants assigned to exercise therapy. Participants' reported feeling more energetic during and after exercise, than before. Many participants reported feeling happy/ happier and expressed feeling better about themselves as individuals after the intervention. Most participants felt more confident in their ability to exercise regularly. Greater emphasis needs to be placed upon educating obese adolescents about the wide range of health benefits that exercise can provide, and that weight loss, while important, is only one such benefit.
