Journal ArticleDOI
Objectively measured sedentary time and physical activity and associations with body weight gain: does body weight determine a decline in moderate and vigorous intensity physical activity?
Ulf Ekelund,Elin Kolle,Jostein Steene-Johannessen,Knut Eirik Dalene,A K O Nilsen,Sigmund A. Anderssen,Bjørge Hermann Hansen +6 more
TL;DR: Baseline BW seems to determine a decrease in MVPA in healthy adult Norwegian men and women, more so than the reverse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of change differ for moderate and vigorous intensity physical activity and for weekdays and weekends: a longitudinal analysis
Kirsten Corder,Christopher Craggs,Andrew Jones,Andrew Jones,Ulf Ekelund,Simon J. Griffin,Esther M. F. van Sluijs +6 more
TL;DR: Results highlight the relevance of investigating predictors of PA change separately for different PA intensities and for weekdays/weekends and suggest more effort to target interventions during weekends appears important.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emerging collaborative research platforms for the next generation of physical activity, sleep and exercise medicine guidelines : the Prospective Physical Activity, Sitting, and Sleep consortium (ProPASS)

Chastin,Ulf Ekelund,Andreas Holtermann +24 more
TL;DR: New directions in PA and sleep-related epidemiology are outlined that open new horizons for guideline development and improvement; and a new research collaboration platform is described: the Prospective Physical Activity, Sitting, and Sleep consortium (ProPASS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Total daily energy expenditure and pattern of physical activity measured by minute-by-minute heart rate monitoring in 14–15 year old Swedish adolescents
Ulf Ekelund,Michael Sjöström,Michael Sjöström,Agneta Yngve,Agneta Yngve,Andreas Nilsson,Andreas Nilsson +6 more
TL;DR: At least thirty percent of adolescents seem not to achieve appropriate levels of physical activity considered to be beneficial for health, and the major amount of time devoted to physical activity refers to light physical activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, but not sedentary time, predicts changes in cardiometabolic risk factors in 10-y-old children: the Active Smarter Kids Study
Turid Skrede,Mette Stavnsbo,Eivind Aadland,Katrine Nyvoll Aadland,Sigmund A. Anderssen,Geir Kåre Resaland,Ulf Ekelund +6 more
TL;DR: Public health strategies aimed at improving children's cardiometabolic profile should strive for increasing physical activity of at least moderate intensity rather than reducing sedentary time.
