Previously an initial measure (qualitative and qualitative) will be made to know the little active adolescents. At the end of the physical activity program a retention measure will be carried out to know the scope and persistence of the variables analyzed. The intervention will be developed with a frequency of three weekly sessions, of 60 minutes, in the period of the intervention, with the exception of weeks in which there is a public holiday, where there will take measures to recover the class. A schedule for the sessions will be set according to the interests of the participants and will be the same for all.
