DOI: 10.1080/02640414.2020.1738701
Abstract: ABSTRACT During 20 m shuttle tests, obese adolescents may have difficulty achieving maximum cardiorespiratory performance due to the presence of braking-relaunch phases (BRP). Nineteen obese adolescents aged 15.2 ± 1.5 years (body mass index [BMI]… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2018/3543048
Abstract: The acceleration and deceleration patterns in heartbeat fluctuations distribute asymmetrically, which is known as heart rate asymmetry (HRA). It is hypothesized that HRA reflects the balancing regulation of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2021.634751
Abstract: Introduction: Walking has the potential to promote health across the life span, but age-specific features of the neighborhood environment (NE), especially in rural communities, linked with walking have not been adequately characterized. This study examines… read more here.

Neighborhood Environment and Affective Walking Experience: Cluster Analysis Results of a Virtual-Environment-Based Conjoint Experiment
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"
DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20021396
Abstract: There is empirical evidence that neighborhood environment characteristics influence individuals’ self-reported affective walking experiences. However, much of the research investigates residents’ affective walking experiences at the neighborhood level using revealed-preference methodologies, making it difficult to… read more here.
