Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamental movement skills in children and adolescents: review of associated health benefits
TL;DR: Strong evidence for a positive association between FMS competency and physical activity in children and adolescents is found and more longitudinal and intervention research examining the relationship between F MS Competency and potential psychological, physiological and behavioural outcomes in children or adolescents is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Childhood motor skill proficiency as a predictor of adolescent physical activity
Lisa M. Barnett,Eric van Beurden,Philip J. Morgan,Lyndon O Brooks,John R. Beard,John R. Beard,John R. Beard +6 more
TL;DR: Object control proficient children were more likely to become active adolescents and motor skill development should be a key strategy in childhood interventions aiming to promote long-term physical activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jordan J. Smith,Narelle Eather,Philip J. Morgan,Ronald C. Plotnikoff,Avery D. Faigenbaum,David R. Lubans +5 more

Effectiveness of web-based interventions in achieving weight loss and weight loss maintenance in overweight and obese adults: a systematic review with meta-analysis.
TL;DR: Although the four meta‐analyses suggest meaningful weight change, it is not possible to determine the effectiveness of web‐based interventions in achieving weight loss or maintenance due to heterogeneity of designs and thus the small number of comparable studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
