Adult female exercise members who take part in activities at the G Sports Center still do not know the exercises that are effective in reducing fat in their bodies. The purpose of this study is to determine the significant difference in influence between the aerobic mix impact exercise method and whether vinyasa yoga has a significant effect on reducing body fat in female exercise members at the G Sports Center. This research is a quasi-experimental study. With a study design of two pretest-postest groups. The population in this study was female exercise members with an age range of 19 to 45 years with a total of 30 women while the sampling technique in this study used a saturated census/sampling technique. So that the entire population was involved in this study. Data were obtained using an observation sheet by measuring fat using the Omron HBF 375 BIA Tool. This tool can be used in a flat place, resulting in accurate data. Data were analyzed descriptively using a t-test with a significant level of α = 0.05. The results showed that there was an effect of mixed-impact aerobic exercise on body fat reduction (p = 0.000) and there was an effect of vinyasa yoga practice on body fat reduction (p = 0.000). There was a significant difference between mixed-impact aerobic exercise and vinyasa yoga practice on fat reduction (p = 0.041). From both treatments, mixed-impact aerobic exercise had a greater effect on fat reduction with an average body fat pretest of 31,727 and posttest 27,653 with a difference in average scores.-The average was 4,074. So aerobic mix impact exercise is recommended for someone, especially in women if you want to reduce body fat.
... Obesity is a state of overnutrition, but a lack of balanced diet can result in deficiencies of nutrients such as iron. Thus, obese adolescents tend to be more prone to anemia (Syah 2022). ...

This study aimed to determine the association between Dietary Diversity Scores (DDS) and nutritional status among adolescent girls with anemia. Seventy-one adolescent girls aged 15−17 years from high schools in Bandung were selected using Probability Proportional to Size (PPS). The data on the sociodemographic characteristics, health and nutritional status, and DDS of the subjects were collected. Results showed that the mean DDS was classified as high. There was no significant association between DDS and BMI-for-age Z-score (BAZ) and Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR) in adolescent girls with anemia (p>0.05). Therefore, DDS was not associated with nutritional status in adolescent girls with anemia.
... Pada remaja putri yang memiliki status gizi overweight, proses inflamasi pada obesitas dapat mengganggu penyerapan zat besi pada saluran cerna dan terhambatnya pelepasan zat besi ke dalam plasma sehingga dapat menyebabkan defisiensi zat besi (16). Hal ini didukung dengan hasil uji chi-square pada penelitian Syah MNH (2022) menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan antara obesitas dengan kejadian anemia pada remaja putri (p<0,05) (17). ...

Latar Belakang: Di Indonesia, remaja menghadapi tiga beban malnutrisi yakni kekurangan gizi, kelebihan gizi dan defisiensi mikronutrien. Sekitar seperempat remaja usia 13–18 tahun mengalami stunting, 9% remaja berusia 13–15 tahun kurus atau memiliki Indeks Massa Tubuh rendah, sementara 16% remaja lainnya kelebihan berat badan atau obesitas. Selain itu, seperempat remaja putri menderita anemia. Tujuan: Untuk mengkaji potensi dari malnutrisi menjadi anemia pada remaja putri. Metode: Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan artikel ini yaitu literature review. Dalam mencari artikel dilakukan pencarian menggunakan bahasa Indonesia dan bahasa inggris yang sesuai dengan topik pencarian, dilakukan dengan database antara lain Google Scholar dan PubMed dengan rentang waktu terbit pada tahun 2018 – 2022. Hasil: Penelusuran artikel penelitian didapatkan 13 artikel berdasarkan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Dari artikel tersebut bahwa baik kekurangan gizi, kelebihan gizi dan defisiensi mikronutrien memiliki potensi untuk terjadinya anemia terutama pada remaja putri yang dalam pemenuhan zat gizi makro dan mikronya tidak terpenuhi dengan baik. Kesimpulan: Pada hasil review ini dapat terlihat bahwa malnutrisi ini memiliki dampak yang serius terhadap kesehatan remaja baik masa sekarang dan yang akan datang terutama pada remaja putri. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya upaya penanggulangan anemia pada remaja putri baik promotif maupun preventif.
... Impaired functional iron status is mainly linked to adipose tissue inflammation and increased expression of the systemic iron regulatory protein hepcidin [26,42]. A study of adolescents in Indonesia and Thailand showed that obese adolescents had a higher risk of anemia, which was explained in the context of inflammation [16,43]. In addition to this mechanism, the increased risk of anemia in obese adolescents can be explained by unhealthy eating habits [44]. ...

Anemia is associated with physical, cognitive, and developmental problems. Given that there are limited studies on anemia prevalence among obese Asian adolescents and that past evidence is controversial, this study investigated the relationship between obesity and anemia in a nationally representative sample of South Korean adolescents. Data were obtained from the 2007–2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Overall, 10,231 subjects were included in the analysis. Multiple logistic regression was performed to determine the relationship between obesity and anemia. Compared with the non-obesity group, the adjusted odds ratio (OR; 95% confidence interval [CI]) of anemia was 1.00 (0.66–1.50) in the obesity group. However, in the early adolescent subgroup of 10–13 years (adjusted OR, 2.88; 95% CI, 1.20–6.95), the risk of anemia was significantly higher in the obese group than in the non-obese group. Obesity was associated with an increased risk of anemia in early adolescents. Obese adolescents aged 10–13 require special care, especially through regular examination and management for anemia.

Adolescent girls with anemia in Indonesia was still high. Adolescents, especially girls were prone to anemia due to their menstrual cycle every month. This cross-sectional study intended to analyze the relationship between knowledge about anemia and physical activity of adolescent girls with the anemia incidence. This research was conducted in MTs. Fadlurrahman, Bekasi, West Java, Indonesia in 2022. This cross-sectional study with 49 samples used stratified random sampling to determine the subjects. The result showed that 36,7% of subjects had anemia, 69,4% had low knowledge and 65,31% had low activity. Chi-square analysis indicated that knowledge of anemia in adolescent girls significantly (p<0,05) related to anemia incidence, but no significant (p>0,05) relationship between physical activity in adolescent girls with the anemia incidence. These findings indicated that increasing the knowledge was important to prevent anemia. Physical activity did not directly affect anemia incidence and needs further investigation.
