The role of neuromuscular performance on bone strength and properties in the forearm and lower leg of children
… attempt were recorded. Countermovement and standing long jump maximal forces were recorded, impulse and power were calculated, and average standing long jump distance was measured. Physical activity was measured using the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children. Sex, maturation …

Validity and reliability of field test to assess physical fitness related to health in adults. The adult-fit project
… need to be assured for any measurement tool. Longitudinal studies have recently contributed to the existing health-related fitness batteries archiving those characteristics in children and adolescents (The ALPHA Study), and preschool children (The PREFIT Study). However, researchers, …

Longitudinal study of pubertal peak height velocity and related morphological and functional components in Brazilian children
… The children (18 girls and 26 boys) were from a longitudinal study in Ilhabela, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Measurements, taken twice a year, included anthropometric parameters: weight, height, sitting height, seven skinfold thicknesses $(\Sigma$ of 7 skf), bone diameters and two circumferences, and …

The role of surface condition in athletic performance
… unstable surfaces during movements like vertical jumps. Of note, under unstable conditions, trunk muscles seem to have a stabilizing function during exercise to facilitate the transfer of torques and angular momentum between the lower and upper extremities. The present thesis addresses the acute …

Feasibility, safety and responsiveness of health-related field-based physical fitness tests in adults: the adult-fit project
… strength in children and adolescents; iii) the standing long jump test was feasible to assess lower body explosive strength in children and adolescents; iv) only the 2-km walk test have shown strong evidence on safety in adults (study I). v) Feasibility items presented a successful answer of …

A study to examine the validity and reliability of a selected group of physical fitness tests within a primary school setting
… 20m shuttle run (SRT), hand grip strength (HGS), standing long jump (SLJ), body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) tests demonstrate strong predictive evidence and good criterion validity. Typical error for the 20mSRT was 0.9 stages. Small changes in 20mSRT (0.4 stages) are challenging …

Fitness, body composition, and depressive symptoms in healthy and depressed adults and older adults
… were conducted in PubMed and Web of Science. Longitudinal and cross-sectional studies were included if they measured at least one fitness component and depressive symptoms indicator in healthy and/or depressed adults or older adults (18 years and over). In Study II, ninety-two older adults (42 …

Physical fitness in school-aged children
… fitness over time (i.e., development) the use of longitudinally-based percentile values is of particular interest due to their underlined dedication of true physical fitness development within subjects (i.e., individual changes in timing and tempo of growth and maturation). Besides its genetic …
