Evidence based physical activity for school-age youth.

TL;DR: School-age youth should participate daily in 60 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous physical activity that is developmentally appropriate, enjoyable, and involves a variety of activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlates of adults' participation in physical activity: review and update.

TL;DR: There remains a need to better understand environmental influences and the factors that influence different types of PA and longitudinal and intervention studies will be required if causal relationships are to be inferred.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conducting accelerometer-based activity assessments in field-based research.

TL;DR: Accelerometer-based activity assessments requires careful planning and the use of appropriate strategies to increase compliance, and face-to-face distribution and collection of accelerometers is probably the best option in field-based research, but deliveries by express carrier or registered mail is a viable option.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age and gender differences in objectively measured physical activity in youth.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated age and gender differences in objectively measured physical activity (PA) in a population-based sample of students in grades 1-12 and found that PA declines rapidly during childhood and adolescence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Accelerometer Cut Points for Predicting Activity Intensity in Youth

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the classification accuracy of five sets of independently developed ActiGraph cut points using energy expenditure, measured by indirect calorimetry, as a criterion reference standard.
