“Active behaviour of parents is more associated with out-of-school physical activity in their children”
Positive associations between MVPA in children and more than 150 min of MVPA per week from parents were found. Also, a trend between maternal PA and their children's out-of-school MVPA was identified, supporting future initiatives focused on family-based PA interventions.
