International journal of obesity and related metabolic disorders : journal of the International Association for the Study of Obesity - 1 Apr 1999

Beunen G, Thomis M

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The purpose is to review the existing literature on genetic determinants of sports participation, daily physical activity (PA) resting metabolic rate (RMR) and activity as a temperamental trait. DESIGN: A synthesis will be given of the published material on this topic with special focus on twin and family data, and association and linkage studies. MEASUREMENTS: Self reported sports participation, daily...
