Independent of age, sex, energy intake, and waist circumference z-score, sedentary behavior and LPA were associated with HDL-C (β = −0.23, 95% CI −0.42 to −0.04, P = 0.020; β = 0.20, 95% CI 0.14 to 0.39, P = 0.036, respectively). The strength of the associations remained after additionally adjusting for MVPA (sedentary behavior: β = −0.22, 95% CI −0.44 to 0.006, P = 0.056; LPA: β = 0.19, 95% CI −0.005 to 0.38, P = 0.056, respectively). Conclusion: Substituting at least LPA for sedentary time may contribute to the development of healthy HDL-C levels among overweight and obese children, independent of their adiposity. Comprehensive prevention and treatment strategies to improve plasma HDL-C among overweight and obese children should target reductions in total sedentary time and promote the benefits of LPA, in addition to promoting healthy levels of adiposity, healthy dietary behaviors, and MVPA.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:51:53 AEST ]]> The HIKCUPS trial: a multi-site randomized controlled trial of a combined physical activity skill-development and dietary modification program in overweight and obese children https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:12879 Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:10:34 AEST ]]> Volumes and bouts of sedentary behavior and physical activity: associations with cardiometabolic health in obese children https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:14514 trend = 0.11).

At baseline, participants completed SCT scales related to physical activity (i.e., self-efficacy, intention, parental support, and outcome expectations). At baseline and 12-month follow-up (postintervention), participants wore accelerometers for 7 days. Structural equation modeling was used to determine if Time 1 measures predicted physical activity at 12-month follow-up after adjusting for baseline activity. Results: The model explained 28% and 34% of the variance in physical activity and intention, respectively. Model fit indexes indicated the data were a good fit to the model; however, only self-efficacy was associated with physical activity at 12 months. There was no support for intention or outcome expectations as proximal determinants of behavior. Self-efficacy was associated with outcome expectations and parental support; however, only outcome expectations predicted intention. Conclusions: Current findings indicate a large proportion of the variance for physical activity and intention remains unexplained and that the proposed pathways in the SCT model were not fully supported. Future model testing may need to consider augmentation or integration of theoretical models, which may include ecological components if we are to advance our understanding of physical activity behavior in this subgroup of the adolescent population.]]> Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:33:46 AEST ]]> The Nutrition and Enjoyable Activity for Teen Girls study: a cluster randomized controlled trial https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:14521 Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:33:44 AEST ]]> Guidelines for the selection of physical literacy measures in physical education in Australia https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35675 Tue 30 Aug 2022 15:22:30 AEST ]]> Correlates of gross motor competence in children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:25930 Tue 30 Aug 2022 10:48:38 AEST ]]> A cluster randomised trial of a school-based intervention to prevent decline in adolescent physical activity levels: study protocol for the 'Physical Activity 4 Everyone' trial https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:15512 Tue 24 Aug 2021 14:34:54 AEST ]]> Defining physical literacy for application in Australia: a modified delphi method https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35676 Tue 22 Oct 2019 12:11:11 AEDT ]]> 'Jump start' childcare-based intervention to promote physical activity in pre-schoolers: Six-month findings from a cluster randomised trial https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:41310 Tue 02 Aug 2022 14:16:37 AEST ]]> Proficiency deficiency: mastery of fundamental movement skills and skill components in overweight and obese children https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:28021 Thu 22 Jun 2017 09:34:21 AEST ]]> Implementing resistance training in secondary schools: a cluster randomized controlled trial https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:36287 -1. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a school-based intervention focused on resistance training (RT) for adolescents. Methods: The "Resistance Training for Teens" intervention was evaluated using a cluster-randomized, controlled trial with 607 adolescents (50.1% girls; 14.1 T 0.5 yr) from 16 secondary schools. Teachers were trained to deliver the intervention, which included the following: (i) an interactive student seminar; (ii) a structured physical activity program, focused on RT; (iii) lunchtime fitness sessions; and (iv) Web-based smartphone apps. The primary outcome was muscular fitness (MF) and secondary outcomes included body mass index, RT skill competency, flexibility, physical activity, self-efficacy, and motivation. Assessments were conducted at baseline, 6 months (postprogram; primary end point), and 12 months (follow-up). Outcomes were assessed using linear mixed models, with three potential moderators tested using interaction terms (and subgroup analyses where appropriate). Results: For the primary outcome (MF), a group-time effect was observed at 6 months for the upper body (2.0 repetitions; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.8-3.2), but not the lower body (-1.4 cm; 95% CI, -4.7-1.9). At 6 months, there were intervention effects for RT skill competency and self-efficacy, but no other secondary outcomes. Effects for upper body MF and RT skill competency were sustained at 12 months. Despite overall no effect for body mass index, there was a group-time effect at 12 months among students whowere overweight/obese at baseline (-0.55 kg·m-2; 95% CI, -1.01 to -0.08). Conclusions: The school-based RT intervention resulted in immediate and sustained improvements in upper body MF and RT skill competency, demonstrating an effective and scalable approach to delivering RT within secondary schools.]]> Thu 19 Mar 2020 17:51:33 AEDT ]]> A collaborative approach to adopting/adapting guidelines.
