Abstract Fitness is a growing priority today, enhancing well-being and self-esteem. Obesity, a major health concern, is linked to cognitive and coordination issues. Body fat percentage is a more accurate measure than BMI. Reaction time reflects cognitive health and agility, helping in quick decision-making and accident prevention. This study aims to assess the correlation between body fat percentage and reaction time in young adults.
Methods: 110 participants of age 18-25 years both males and females were in involved in the study. Participants who had any neurological disease, visual defects, fracture of upper or lower limb were excluded. Body fat percentage using bioelectric impedence (Omron HBF-375 karada scan) was measured. Simple reaction time was calculated using Deary Liewald software.
Result: Body fat percentage showed a moderate to strong positive correlation with simple reaction time (r=0.1898, P=0.0471).
Conclusion and Clinical implications: A definite increase or delay in reaction time associated with increase in body fat percentage was observed in this study. The study suggests the importance of early intervention in weight management to prevent cognitive and physical performance decline.
Keywords Body Fat Percentage, Simple Reaction Time, Bioelectric Impedance, Dewy Liewald Software.
