Public Defence of doctoral thesis | Physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors from childhood to young adulthood by Anders Husøy, Norwegian School of Sport Sciences, October 9,...
In the UngKan (Youth can do it) follow-up study Anders Husøy sought to examine the trends, levels, and associations of physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, and cardiometabolic risk factors from childhood (age 9 years) to adolescence (15 years) and further into young adulthood (age 24 years). In one study, he found that sedentary time increases from childhood to adolescence. A decrease from childhood to adolescence was seen for time spent in light, moderate, and vigorous physical activity.
