Human activity is omnipresent in our landscapes. Animals can perceive risk from humans similar to predation risk, which could affect their fitness. We assessed the influence of the relative intensity of recreational activities on the bodyweight and pregnancy rates of red deer (Cervus elaphus) between …

Objectives Providing an overview of the clinimetric properties of the steep ramp test (SRT), a short-term maximal exercise test, to assess cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), describing its underlying physiological responses, and summarizing its applications in current clinical and research practice. Data …

De relatie tussen de primaire uitkomstmaten van de steep ramp test en de cardio pulmonale exercise testing.

Introduction: Falls and fall-related injuries in community-dwelling older adults are a growing global health concern. Despite effective exercise-based fall prevention programs (FPPs), low enrollment rates persist due to negative connotations associated with falls and aging. This study aimed to investigate …

GERANDA SLAGER Hanzehogeschool Groningen Inleiding: Aerobe fitheid (AF) is van sterk belang voor de beoordeling van gezondheid gerelateerde fitheid van kinderen en jongvolwassenen. De AF wordt vaak gemeten op scholen in Nederland met de shuttle run test, een piepjestest over een loopafstand van 20 meter …

Abstract This study assessed the efficacy of a co-designed, school-based intervention meant to promote physical activity and fitness among Dutch prevocational secondary students. In a two-year clustered randomized controlled trial, students’ physical activity and fitness was measured by indirect and …

In their developmental model, Stodden et al. (2008) propose age- dependent relations between motor competence, physical activity, perceived motor competence, physical fitness, and weight status that can lead to a spiral of (dis)engagement. The goal of this study was to explore these relations in a large …

Dit onderzoek maakt deel uit van een overkoepelend onderzoek, met als doel normwaarden te creëren voor de Steep Ramp Test om het meten van de cardiorespiratoire fitheid toegankelijker te maken in de eerste lijn. In dit onderzoek wordt de invloed van de kracht van de bovenbenen op de Steep Ramp test onderzocht. Doel: …

The goal of this cross-sectional study was to further explore the relationships between motor competence, physical activity, perceived motor competence, physical fitness and weight status in different age categories of Dutch primary school children. Participants were 2068 children aged 4 to 13 years …

Objectives: Health problems in patients with heritable connective tissue disorders (HCTD) are diverse and complex and might lead to lower physical activity (PA) and physical fitness (PF). This study aimed to investigate the PA and PF of children with heritable connective tissue disorders (HCTD). Methods: …
