Comparison of Summer and Winter Objectively Measured Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in Older Adults
In Iceland, there is a large variation in daylight between summer and winter. The aim of the study was to identify how this large variation influences physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB). Free living PA was measured by a waist-worn accelerometer for one week during waking hours in 138 community-dwelling older adults (61.1% women, 80.3 ± 4.9 years) during summer and winter months. In general, SB occupied about 75% of the registered …
Importance of physical health and health-behaviors in adolescence for risk of dropout from secondary education in young adulthood
Completion of a secondary education yields substantial physical health benefits for young women, but not for men. Importantly, somatic complaints and negative health-behaviors among adolescent boys and girls adversely impact their educational outcomes later in life, and may have widespread consequences for their future prospects
The association of cardiorespiratory fitness to health independent of adiposity depends upon its expression
CRFFFM, where adiposity has been removed, is associated with metabolic risk factors, whereas CRF, which is related to adiposity, is not after adjustment for fatness. Previously, independent effects of CRF on health may have been underestimated by using an expression of CRF strongly related to the adiposity measures
