Active video games (AVG) could be an attractive strategy to help address them. The aim was to investigate the effects of AVG on health-related physical fitness and motor competence in children and adolescents with healthy weight. (2) Methods: Randomized and non-randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of AVG programs on health-related physical fitness and motor competence were included. Two different quality assessment tools were used to measure the risk of bias. Twenty articles met the inclusion criteria and the variables of interest were body mass index (BMI), body fat, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), muscular fitness and motor competence. (3) Re-sults: AVG interventions seem to have benefits in BMI when lasting longer than 18 weeks (SMD, -0.590; 95% IC, -1.071, -0.108) and in CRF (SMD, 0.438; 95% IC, 0.022, 0.855). AVG seems to be a promising tool to improve muscular fitness and motor competence but the effects are still unclear due to the lack of evidence. (4) Conclusions: AVG seem to be an effective tool for improving some components of health-related physical fitness and motor competence in healthy-weight children and adolescents, but the effect on some fitness components needs further research. Therefore, AVG may be included as a strategy to improve health. 000151984 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/DEP2017-85194-P 000151984 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000151984 590__ $$a4.614$$b2021 000151984 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b45 / 182 = 0.247$$c2021$$dQ1$$eT1 000151984 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b71 / 210 = 0.338$$c2021$$dQ2$$eT2 000151984 591__ $$aENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES$$b100 / 279 = 0.358$$c2021$$dQ2$$eT2 000151984 592__ $$a0.814$$b2021 000151984 593__ $$aPollution$$c2021$$dQ1 000151984 593__ $$aHealth, Toxicology and Mutagenesis$$c2021$$dQ1 000151984 594__ $$a4.5$$b2021 000151984 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000151984 700__ $$aMarin-Puyalto J. 000151984 700__ $$aMatute-Llorente A. 000151984 700__ $$aVicente-Rodriguez G. 000151984 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-7215-6931$$aCasajus Mallén, J.A.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000151984 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-1132-5906$$aGonzález de Agüero Lafuente, Alejandro$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000151984 7102_ $$11006$$2245$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
