Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To determine whether physical activity and fitness change in girls with and without a predisposition to obesity from 8 to 10 yr of age. METHODS: Normal-weight girls (N = 91) were recruited at 8 yr of age according to parental body mass index (BMI): LN = girls with two lean (BMI < 25 kg.m-2) parents, LNOB = girls with one obese and one lean parent, and OB = girls with two obese (BMI > 28 kg.m-2) parents....
