Background Although cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in childhood and adolescence may be
linked to future cardiovascular health, there is currently limited evidence for a longitudinal …

Sedentary behaviour has emerged as a unique determinant of health in adults. Studies in
children and adolescents have been less consistent. We reviewed the evidence to …

Background Not only in adults but also in children and adolescents, obesity increases the
risk for several health disorders. In turn, many factors including genetic variations and …

Background The minimal physical activity intensity that would confer health benefits among
adolescents is unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations of …

The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which fundamental movement skills
and physical fitness scores assessed in early adolescence predict self‐reported physical …

This systematic review examined the associations of physical activity (PA) and sedentary
behavior to childhood overweight and obesity in cross-sectional studies from the last 10 …

Objective: To examine the longitudinal associations between different physical activity (PA)
intensities and cardiometabolic risk factors among a sample of Canadian youth. Methods …

Background The minimum intensity of physical activity (PA) that is associated with
favourable body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) remains unknown …

Clustering of cardiometabolic risk factors can occur during childhood and predisposes
individuals to cardiometabolic disease. This study calculated clustered cardiometabolic risk …

Background. Increasing evidence suggests that vigorous physical activity (VPA) in youth
may yield greater health benefits than moderate (MPA) or moderate-to-vigorous physical …
