Specific Features of the Ukrainian Urban Adolescents' Physical Activity: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Conclusion: The obtained results are indicative of a lack of implementation of measures to increase physical activity, which requires public attention to this problem. A search for ways to improve public policy towards optimizing adolescents' PA is still an urgent goal for scholars and practitioners. PA-promoting measures should be developed taking into account the impact of family traditions, accessibility of sports facilities, leisure, advertising, and other factors. The obtained results are the initial stage for developing the program of physical inactivity prevention. PMID: 32351581 [PubMed - in process]
