Background Experts recommend physical activity (PA) to optimize bariatric surgery (BS)
results. However, evidence on the effect of PA before BS is missing. The aim of this study …

Background Bariatric surgery candidates engage in less physical activity (PA) and spend
longer periods in sedentary behaviour (SB) when compared to the general adult population …

Objective Bariatric surgery results in significant weight loss and reduces cardiovascular
morbidity. However, a large variation in postsurgery weight loss is seen. Physical activity …

Purpose The aim of this study is to conduct a pilot randomized trial testing an exercise
program specifically adapted for post-bariatric patients. Methods A total of 51 post-bariatric …

Background Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) patients report significant pre-to post-surgery
increases in physical activity (PA). Conversely, objectively assessed PA does not increase …

Objective To test the effectiveness of two levels of physical activity interventions before and
up to 6½ months after bariatric surgery. Methods Before surgery, individuals completed …

Higher preoperative physical activity (PA) strongly predicts higher post-operative PA in
bariatric surgery (BS) patients, providing rationale for preoperative PA interventions (PAIs) …

Background Patients undergoing bariatric surgery do not seem to increase objectively
measured physical activity (PA) after surgery, despite substantial weight loss. The aims of …

Background Many studies using self-reported physical activity (PA) assessment tools have
suggested there is an increase in PA after bariatric surgery. Objectives Our aim was to …

Objective To examine the impact of a pre‐bariatric surgery physical activity intervention
(PAI), designed to increase bout‐related (≥ 10 min) moderate to vigorous PA (MVPA), on …
