Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed muscular fitness trends in French youth aged 6-16 from 1999 to 2023, using data from over 53,000 participants and measuring standing broad jump (SBJ) and handgrip strength (HGS).
- Results showed a slight decline in SBJ performance and a small improvement in HGS, indicating negligible overall changes in muscular fitness across the population.
- There was an increase in variability and differences in performance levels, suggesting that while high performers are getting better, low performers are struggling, highlighting the need for targeted fitness interventions for weaker youth.

Background & Aims: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, originating in the first decades of life. A better understanding of their early determinants would allow for better prevention. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of nutritional and activity-related characteristics during adolescence on young adult cardiovascular risk factors.

Objectives: In children, achieving an acceptable degree of accuracy from dietary or physical activity (PA) assessments remains a challenge. Children tend to overestimate their time spent in daily PA and underestimate their dietary intake of fat and sugar. Because parents play a key role in family lifestyle decisions, including children's food choices and PA levels, it is important to investigate the responses of parents regarding their children's lifestyle habits.
