A058: The Effects Of Isotemporal Reallocation Of 24-Hour Activity Behaviors On Physical Fitness In Preschool Children, Yixin Liang, Junyu Wang, Jie Zhuang Jan 2026

A058: The Effects Of Isotemporal Reallocation Of 24-Hour Activity Behaviors On Physical Fitness In Preschool Children, Yixin Liang, Junyu Wang, Jie Zhuang

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

Preschool children's physical fitness is critical for lifelong health, yet recent trends show declining fitness levels, rising obesity, and reduced physical competence. Physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep (SLP) are key lifestyle factors influencing health. Compositional data analysis (CDA) addresses multicollinearity among these behaviors, while the isotemporal substitution model evaluates the effects of reallocating time between them. This study investigates the associations between 24-hour movement behaviors and preschool children's physical fitness, offering evidence-based recommendations. Method: A total of 806 preschool children aged 3–6 years were recruited from three kindergartens in Shanghai using cluster random and convenience sampling. Demographic …

A055: Aerobic Exercise Improves Sarcopenia And Gut-Muscle Axis In Abx-Treated Samp8 Mice, Sisi Yao, Wenfeng Liu

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

Sarcopenia, characterized by reduced skeletal muscle mass and function, is a common geriatric condition that impairs mobility and quality of life. Its causes include neuroendocrine dysregulation, chronic inflammation, malnutrition, and gut microbiota imbalance. The gut microbiota influences muscle metabolism and function via the gut-muscle axis, and aerobic exercise has been shown to improve both gut microbiota composition and muscle function. This study explores whether aerobic exercise can alleviate sarcopenia induced by gut microbiota dysbiosis through the gut-muscle axis, offering a basis for exercise interventions. The study employed the senescence-accelerated mouse strain P8 (SAMP8) model. Gut microbiota dysbiosis was induced via …

A175: The Effects Of A Four-Week Affective Priming Intervention On Exercise Behavior In Sedentary Undergraduates, Yunru Shao, Lu Guo

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

The population remains physically inactive despite the proven benefits of physical activity. Promoting and maintaining sedentary undergraduates exercising is beneficial to their long-term development. According to the dual-process theory, behaviors are the result of not only reflective but also impulsive processes. Affective priming is assumed to be an efficient intervention to improve affective responses to exercise and might promote exercise behavior through the impulsive process. Therefore, the present study examined the effect of a four-week affective priming intervention on affective responses to exercise, exercise intentions, and exercise behavior. Method: Twenty-nine sedentary undergraduates (Mage = 20.07, SD = 2.05, female% = …
