Abstract

A child who experiences problems of excessive nutritional value when he is an adult will cause dangerous diseases such as cardiovascular disorders and diabetes. Being overweight can also affect a child's intelligence. In children with overweight status, intelligence can experience a decrease due to a decrease in creativity and limitation when doing activities due to body conditions that are not free to move, so that makes children lazy to do something. Rhythmic gymnastics (Rhythmic gymnastics) increases the ability of muscles to produce energy aerobically and undergoes a metabolic process whose source of energy comes from burning fat.
