Brief Summary

Physical activity is thought to be a key element in preventing the obesity epidemic and the associated cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. However population-based studies directed at promoting physical activity in youth have shown limited success in obesity prevention. The aim of this study is to assess whether an intervention integrating socioecological changes, which has the potential to induce sustained changes in physical activity, prevents overweight and cardiovascular risk in adolescents.

Conditions

Physical Activity; Overweight; Cardiovascular Disease

Keywords

Physical activity; Randomised trial; Prevention; Adolescents; Obesity; Cardiovascular risk factors
