Research on the intervention mechanism of sustainable physical exercise on obesity among vocational college students

According to the 《2024 World Obesity Report》, if no obesity interventions are implemented globally, the number of overweight or obese adolescents (aged 5-19) is projected to rise from 435 million (22% of the global population in this age group) to 770 million by 2035. Among them, 27 million will develop high blood sugar, and 69 million will suffer from hypertension, primarily concentrated in middle-income countries. The National College Student Physical Fitness and Health Survey indicates a continuous increase in obesity rates among Chinese university students. The 2021 findings from the Eighth National Student Physical Fitness and Health Survey, released by the Ministry of Education, reveal that by 2020, approximately 30% of university students failed to meet physical fitness standards. Obesity has become the primary reason for failing these standards, as it not only affects students' appearance but also directly or indirectly leads to psychological issues such as low self-esteem and depression. Data from the 《National College Student Health Survey Report (2024)》show that anxiety detection rates among university students reached 23.5%, while depression detection rates stood at 19.2%. Additionally, obesity poses a severe threat to students' health, which is one of the reasons why the pass rate for physical fitness tests remains stagnant.
