“…Unadjusted measures of PA, reported before and after the transition, or change in PA across a transition, were converted to a standard metric of moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in minutes per day (min/day). Where continuous PA data were reported, but not in an appropriate format, ie, graphically, or without standard errors reported (two papers), we contacted the authors to request further information. For conversion from MET‐minutes to MVPA we divided by 5, assuming a MET‐value of 5 for MVPA, in line with a previous approach .…”

Changes in physical activity, diet, and body weight across the education and employment transitions of early adulthood: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Summary Early adulthood is a time when individuals go through important life transitions, such as moving from high school into higher education or employment, but the impact of these life transitions on changes in body weight, diet, and physical activity is not known. We searched six electronic databases to July 2019 for longitudinal observational studies providing data on adiposity, diet, and/or physical activity across education or employment transitions in young people aged between 15 and 35 years. We found 19 studies, of which 17 assessed changes in physical activity, three body weight, and five diet or eating behaviours. Meta‐analysis (n=9) found that leaving high school was associated with a decrease of −7.04 (95% CI, −11.26, −2.82) min/day of moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity. Three studies reported increases in body weight on leaving high school. A small number of studies suggested decreases in diet quality on leaving high school (n=2/4 papers) and leaving university (n=1) but not on starting employment (n=1). Studies suggested no change in physical activity on leaving university (n=4) but decreases in physical activity on starting employment (n=2/3). The transition of leaving high school is an important time to support individuals to prevent decreases in physical activity and gains in body weight.

“…For example, research suggests that dropout is particularly evident in females as they progress through adolescence, so age and sex are important factors to consider. 17 Additionally, dropout may differ between recreational and competitive sport environments. 3 Perceived competence is also considered a key determinant of youth physical activity 18 with a recent systematic review by Crane and Temple 6 indicating that a lack of perceived competence was the second most common intrapersonal variable associated with dropout.…”

Physical Activity and Health Habits of 17- to 25-Year-Old Young People during Their Free Time

et al. 2019

The objective was to examine daily health-related habits and physical activity during free time in a group of young people, with the aim of analysing what types of habits are developed and the associations existing between these habits. A cross-sectional and observational study was carried out. The sample was composed of 1132 young people from Castilla-La Mancha (Spain), 53.4% women and 46.6% men, between 17 and 25 years old (M = 20.63; DT = 2.01). The instrument used in this study was the questionnaire of assessment of health-related habits (QAHH). Different ranges of age and gender were taken into account in the analyses. The results showed low rates of physical activity, with only 25% of the participants practicing physical activity in their free time. Regarding gender, no differences were observed between boys and girls in terms of the level of physical activity practice. The inferential analyses revealed several significant relationships between the habits of leisure time and the practice of physical activity. The analyses also revealed that alcohol consumption, tobacco consumption and Internet were used as means to escape from everyday life. The most frequent free-time activities of the participants during the week were the use of new technologies and the consumption of harmful substances. During the weekends the most frequent ones were physical activity and consumption of harmful substances. While the relationship between physical activity, health-related habits and leisure time in young people is complex, these results indicate that physical activity should be promoted in young people, especially during the week and as a healthy alternative to the consumption of harmful substances. To do this, professionals of different fields (education, psychology, sports sciences, nutrition and medicine, among others) should work together.Sustainability 2019, 11, 6577 2 of 13 has been proven that lack of physical activity leads to obesity and health problems [6,7]. In the same way, other researches have studied the correlation between diet and the practice of physical education as factors that influence health [8,9].Without any doubt, the practice of physical education contributes to the prevention of some diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes type 2, overweight and obesity, cancer of colon and depression and anxiety, among others. Moreover, physical activity contributes to the improvement of the psychological state of people. For this reason, it is of utmost importance to examine behaviours linked to health, with the main aim of explaining the current situation in society. So, the attention must be focused on some stages such as adolescence and youth, as they are essential in the acquisition of future healthy lifestyles [4]. Regarding gender, women practice less physical activity, and this inactivity increases with age [9,10].The activities developed during free time are associated with fun, satisfaction and pleasure. However, these activities do not have to be related neither with physical activity nor w...
