Family-based physical activity interventions and family functioning: A systematic review.

Family physical activity (PA) can confer multiple health benefits, yet whether PA interventions affect general family functioning has not been appraised. The purpose of this review was to evaluate studies that have examined the effect of family PA interventions, where child PA was the focus of the intervention, on constructs of family functioning. Literature searches were concluded on January 11, 2022 using seven common databases.

A feasibility randomized controlled trial of a multi-process action control web-based intervention that targets physical activity in mothers.

The onset of motherhood is associated with a decline in moderate- to vigorous-physical activity (MVPA) and this deficit can remain for years to come. This study explored the feasibility of a web-based intervention, informed by the multi-process action control (M-PAC) framework, to promote PA in mothers. Forty-one inactive mothers of children <16 were randomized to a 10-week web-intervention ( = 20) or wait-list control ( = 21).

Perceptions of physical activity and sedentary behaviour guidelines among end-users and stakeholders: a systematic review.

Background: Many of the world's population, across all age groups and abilities, are not meeting or even aware of internationally recommended physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) guidelines. In order to enhance awareness and uptake, guidelines should be perceived positively by targeted users. The purpose of this study was to review the literature on end-user and stakeholder perceptions of PA and SB guidelines.

Physical activity throughout pregnancy: guideline critical appraisal and implementation tool.

Objective: The 2019 Canadian guideline for physical activity throughout pregnancy provides evidencebased recommendations to promote maternal, fetal, and neonatal health. We aimed to 1) critically appraise the 2019 Canadian guideline for physical activity throughout pregnancy; and 2) develop a guideline summary for clinicians to facilitate the uptake of recommendations into practice.

Methods: We used the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) instrument to critically appraise the quality and reporting of this guideline.

Effects of tailored advice on injury prevention knowledge and behaviours in runners: Secondary analysis from a randomised controlled trial.

Objectives: To determine whether biweekly tailored advice was more effective than general advice at baseline alone for enhancing evidence-based running-related injury (RRI) prevention knowledge and behaviours in runners.

Design: Randomised controlled trial, blinded statistical analysis, secondary analysis.

Setting: Recreational running clinics.
