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…
The influence of life transitions on Danish adults' physical activity beliefs and behaviour
Using a qualitative design, we explored how life transitions influence Danish adults' physical activity beliefs and behaviour adopting the Theory of Planned Behaviour as a guiding framework. Life story interviews with 42 participants revealed 6 salient life transition periods which affected physical activity behaviour, either in a disruptive way resulting in decreased activity levels or in a facilitative manner, providing opportunities for increa…
Motives for leisure-time physical activity participation
Our study contributes to the literature on motives for physical activity participation by using a large sample of individuals and by differentiating motives according to a wide range of activity types. The results underline the need to study motives in relation to activity types, as there are large differences in the prevalence of different motives. Our findings suggest that motives are not consistent across activity types, but rather they develo…

Attendance barriers experienced by female health care workers voluntarily participating in a multi-component health promotion programme at the workplace
ClinicalTrials.gov. NCT02843269 - 06.27.2016 - retrospectively registered
Improving the well-being of children and youths
The benefits of physical activity for the mental health and well-being of children and young people are well-established. Increased physical activity during school hours is associated with better physical, psychological and social health and well‐being. Unfortunately many children and young people exercise insufficiently to benefit from positive factors like well-being. The main aim of this study is to develop, implement and evaluate a multi-comp…

Exercise addiction in team sport and individual sport
Exercise addiction is characterized by increasing exercise amounts which take priority over other areas of life. It is mostly observed in individual sports, such as running and weight-lifting, whereas addiction in team sport has not previously been investigated. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of exercise addiction in a team sport (football) compared to an individual sport (fitness) and to test the psychometric properties of …
