A 3-year longitudinal analysis of changes in fitness, physical activity, fatness and screen time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-10-19)Aim: To analyse whether changes in physical activity index (PAI), screen time (ST: television, computer) and body mass index (BMI) made a contribution to longitudinal changes in fitness of children and adolescents. ... -
Associations of lipoprotein particle profile and objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time in schoolchildren: A prospective cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Our understanding of the mechanisms through which physical activity might benefit lipoprotein metabolism is inadequate. Here we characterise the continuous associations between physical activity of different ... -
Breaking-up sedentary time is associated with impairment in activities of daily living
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-12)Identifying modifiable behaviors associated with prevention of activities of daily living (ADL) impairments is vital to implement preventive strategies for independent living in elderly. We aimed to examine the associations ... -
Changes in physical activity and sedentary time during adolescence: Gender differences during weekdays and weekend days
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives: The objective of this study was to determine the gender‐specific and time‐segmented changes in accelerometer measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST) during adolescence. Methods: The study ... -
Contributions of changes in physical activity, sedentary time, diet and body weight to changes in cardiometabolic risk
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Increased physical activity (PA), reduced time spent sedentary (SED), healthier diet and reduced body weight may all have a positive impact on cardiometabolic risk. The relative importance of change in each of ... -
Cross-Sectional Associations of Objectively-Measured Physical Activity and Sedentary Time with Body Composition and Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Mid-Childhood: The PANIC Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-08-24)Background: The minimum intensity of physical activity (PA) that is associated with favourable body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) remains unknown. Objective: To investigate cross-sectional associations ... -
How European Fans in Training (EuroFIT), a lifestyle change program for men delivered in football clubs, achieved its effect: A mixed methods process evaluation embedded in a randomised controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: A randomised trial of European Fans in Training (EuroFIT), a 12-week healthy lifestyle program delivered in 15 professional football clubs in the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, successfully ... -
Levels and patterns of objectively-measured physical activity volume and intensity distribution in UK adolescents: the ROOTS study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-02-24)Background: Few studies have quantified levels of habitual physical activity across the entire intensity range. We aimed to describe variability in total and intensity-specific physical activity levels in UK adolescents ... -
Longitudinal associations of physical activity, sedentary time, and cardiorespiratory fitness with arterial health in children–the PANIC study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We investigated the longitudinal associations of physical activity (PA), sedentary time (ST), and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) with arterial health among children. In our primary analyses, we investigated 245 children ... -
Magnitude and determinants of change in objectively-measured physical activity, sedentary time and sleep duration from ages 15 to 17.5y in UK adolescents: the ROOTS study.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-14)Background: Self-reported physical activity (PA) and sleep duration (SLP) change markedly throughout adolescence. We sought to quantify changes in objectively-measured PA, sedentary time (ST) and SLP through adolescence, ... -
Physical activity pattern and cardiorespiratory fitness in individuals with schizophrenia compared with a population-based sample
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective: Thorough description of objectively assessed physical activity (PA) and sedentary time in people with schizophrenia is lacking, and previous studies comparing PA and cardiorespiratory fitness levels with healthy ... -
Physical activity, sedentary time and gain in overall and central body fat: 7-year follow-up of the ProActive trial cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-05-20)Objective: The objective of this study is to examine the independent associations of time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary (SED-time), with total and abdominal body fat (BF), and the ... -
Sedentary time and physical activity surveillance through accelerometer pooling in four european countries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-10)OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to pool, harmonise and re-analyse national accelerometer data from adults in four European countries in order to describe population levels of sedentary time and physical inactivity. ...
