Research Impact: We determined the self-reported prevalence of meeting US physical activity guidelines, stratified by sitting time, during the early lockdown phase of COVID-19 (April 3rd – May 4th, 2020) among 5,036 US adults (65.3% […]

Research Impact: We determined the self-reported prevalence of meeting US physical activity guidelines, stratified by sitting time, during the early lockdown phase of COVID-19 (April 3rd – May 4th, 2020) among 5,036 US adults (65.3% […]
Research Impact: We quantified the effects of eight weeks of WHO and ACSM guidelines-based resistance exercise training (RET), compared to a wait-list control, among 44 young adults with subclinical, or analogue GAD AGAD). Participants significantly […]
Research Impact: The COVID-19 pandemic has elicited changes to how and even whether we work. How COVID-19-related changes in employment conditions are associated with activity behaviours has remained unstudied. Among 2,303 US adults employed prior […]
Research Impact: This trial quantified the effects of ecologically-valid ACSM and WHO guidelines-based resistance exercise training (RET) on anxiety and worry symptoms among young adults. Young adults not meeting criteria for subclinical, or analogue Generalized […]
Research Impact: It is plausible that adaptive changes in attention to emotional stimuli underlie exercise-induced mood enhancement. Thus, we examined the effects of acute aerobic exercise on eye-tracking metrics while 34 young adults viewed positive, […]
Research Impact: We evaluated the impact of COVID-19-related public health guidelines on physical activity, sedentary behaviour, mental health, and their interrelations among 3,052 US adults. Self-reported physical activity was 32.3% lower among previously active participants, […]
Research Impact: This study examined interrelations between the Big 5 personality factors (i.e., neuroticism, extroversion, openness, conscientiousness, and agreeableness), physical activity, and generalized anxiety disorder among older adults. It found that 1) extraversion, openness, and […]
Research Impact: Evidence supports benefits of exercise, primarily traditional exercise modes, for mental health among people with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS); however, less is known about non-traditional modes like Pilates. Clinical trials should be underpinned by […]
Research Impact: Exercise training could be an effective coping strategy for increased anxiety symptoms in response to first time incarceration, but this has been unstudied. Thus, 37 first-time French prisoners were randomised to three weekly […]
Research Impact: Psychological consequences of sprint interval training (SIT), a potential time-efficient exercise strategy for which physiological adaptations are supported, is understudied, particularly effects on anxiety-related constructs. This is the first investigation of state anxiety […]
