Adapting a resistance training program for Danish physical education
Introduction Transferring and scaling school-based physical activity (PA) programs across educational contexts requires systematic adaptation to ensure implementation feasibility and contextual fit. This study examined Danish physical education (PE) teachers' preconceptions for resistance training and a participatory co-adaptation process used to adapt the evidence-based Resistance Training for Teens (RT4T) program for implementation in Danish lo…
Maintaining conceptual fidelity through teacher-led adaptation
School-based physical activity programs are widely promoted to address adolescent physical inactivity, yet their population-level impact is often limited by implementation challenges in real-world school settings. While implementation fidelity is frequently assessed, less is known about how teachers actively balance adherence and local adaptation while maintaining core program principles. This study examined the implementation of the FIT FIRST Te…
Understanding school frontline workers’ early implementation behavior
Introduction Childhood obesity is a growing global public health issue, with significant implications for children’s physical and psychological well-being. Schools offer a structured environment for implementing health-promoting interventions to address this challenge. This study examines how organizational conditions within schools influence frontline workers’ (e.g., teachers and pedagogic staff) early implementation behavior in a school-based h…
The FIT FIRST 10 dose-response study
Introduction Increasing physical activity (PA) levels among children is critical to mitigate health risks associated with physical inactivity. Schools have been highlighted as ideal setting for promoting PA. However, existing school-based PA programs often face implementation challenges. The FIT FIRST 10 (FF10) multi-sport program has been introduced in Denmark, aiming to increase PA and to enhance children's health, fitness, and well-being. This…
Mind the gap
In 2014, the Danish government introduced a wide-ranging reform of primary and lower secondary education that applied to all public schools. A distinctive feature was that it became mandatory for schools to provide an average of 45 min of daily physical activity (PA). The capacity for change of local school heads and the schools overall are considered key to fulfilling such a policy-driven requirement. The aim of this study is therefore to explor…
Device-based physical activity measures for population surveillance—issues of selection bias and reactivity
Recruiting a population representative sample for device-based measurement of physical activity is challenging, and there is a substantial risk of sample selection bias and measurement reactivity. Further research in this area is needed if device-based measures should be considered for population physical activity surveillance
A qualitative study of school leader experiences adopting and implementing a whole of school physical activity and sedentary behaviour programme
Purpose Little is known about the experiences of school leaders adopting and implementing real-world, scaled-up physical activity interventions in the Australian educational system. Transform-Us! is a novel physical activity and sedentary behaviour intervention available to all primary schools in Victoria, Australia, since September 2018. This study explored barriers and facilitators experienced by school leaders during the adoption and early imp…
Exploring implementation of a nationwide requirement to increase physical activity in the curriculum in Danish public schools
This study provides an evaluation on a nationwide physical activity requirement in Danish public schools. When introducing a wide-ranging nation-wide requirement on physical activity within the curriculum, school managers need to prioritize and support the implementation process. Teachers need to be involved in the decision processes in order to ensure motivation and local ownership. The study also highlights the benefits of an internal coordinat…
Protocol for evaluating the impact of a national school policy on physical activity levels in Danish children and adolescents
The PHASAR study is a rare opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of a nation-wide policy-driven school-based physical activity promotion initiative. The use of objectively measured pre- and post-reform physical activity and body mass index data combined with a characterization of the school implementation processes for physical activity promotion will provide a comprehensive source to evaluate the school reform. The study findings have the po…
