Physical Activity Friendliness of Neighborhoods
One potential strategy to promote physical activity (PA) involves changing the neighborhood environment. The PA-friendliness of neighborhood environments is often calculated using geospatial data. However, the association with perceived PA-friendliness seems to be low. Therefore, we examined the relationship between two Dutch geospatial measures and residents' perceptions regarding the PA-friendliness of their neighborhoods. Data from 3438 respon…
Year Individual Physical Activity Patterns and Related Characteristics
Almost half of the participants changed their physical activity behaviour over 20 years. Baseline age, level of education, smoking, alcohol consumption, adherence to dietary guidelines, weight status and perceived health were associated with different physical activity patterns
Adhering to the 2017 Dutch Physical Activity Guidelines
Recently, new physical activity (PA) guidelines were adopted in the Netherlands consisting of two components: (1) addressing duration of moderate and vigorous PA, (2) bone and muscle strengthening activities. The aim of this study is to retrospectively assess the long-term trend in fulfilling the criteria of the new PA guidelines and to gain insight into which activities contribute to changes over time. Data were available for 2001–2018 of a nati…
Adopting an Active Lifestyle During Adulthood and Health-Related Quality of Life
Objectives. We examined health-related quality of life in adults who became physically active at recommended levels over a 10-year period compared with adults with different physical activity patterns. Methods. We examined men and women aged 26 to 70 years (mean [SD] = 47.4 [10.1]) in the Doetinchem Cohort Study 3 times between 1995 and 2009. We distinguished participants who became physically active (n = 618), remained active (n = 1286), remaine…
