“…According adherence to MD, findings reveal a direct relationship between this variable and the practice of PA, which was higher in women. This could be explained by the greater association found in this sex for the ego-oriented motivational climate, which would imply a greater care of the diet for the improvement of the physical fitness for competition and physical attractiveness [36,61]. In addition, MD was inversely associated with tobacco consumption in men, which could demonstrate that to follow an appropriate diet could help to prevent the consumption of this substance, as shown by Phull et al [62].…”

“…It should be noted that MD was not related to VO 2MAX , which could be justified by the greater dependence of this indicator on sport habits and training intensity parameters. In addition, it has been demonstrated that a high adherence to MD is linked to a better health state, but not with the adaptations linked to a higher VO 2MAX such as lung volume or better perfusion of respiratory gases [19,61]. Finally, PA did not reveal statistically significant associations with respect to alcohol consumption.…”

(1) Background: Several researches have shown the relationship between healthy habits and physical and mental health. Thus, it is essential to study how some psychosocial factors can promote positive behaviours in university students, specifically in those who will be teachers of Physical Education. (2) Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional research was conducted on 775 university students of Physical Education from Spain. This study aims to develop an explanatory model for the relationships between motivational climate, healthy habits (Mediterranean Diet (MD), Physical Activity (PA) and substance consumption) and some indicators of physical health (oxygen consumption (VO2MAX)) and mental health (self-concept) according to gender, using structural equations analysis. (3) Results: The motivational climate was positively associated with PA, showing a stronger relationship for ego-oriented climate in women. The adherence to MD showed a positive association with PA and self-concept, while it is negative for the consumption of tobacco in men. Likewise, PA was directly related to VO2MAX with a higher regression weight for women. The ego-oriented motivational climate was negatively related to tobacco consumption in women. (4) Conclusions: Task-oriented goals are related to more positive and healthy behaviours such as PA, although it was no association was found with MD. Therefore, we can conclude the importance of promoting task-oriented goals in educational contexts linked to Physical Education in order to avoid negative behaviours.

“…Our findings support the research hypothesis, a n d are with previous studies indicating that PA was significantly associated with physical fitness in preschool children. Data from cross-sectional studies suggested active children were more likely to have better physical fitness than less active [11] and sedentary behavior children [43]. Vigorous PA was also found beneficial to CRF, a s children who accumulated 40 min vigorous PA was greater than those only had 18 min [44].…”

Purpose: To investigate the relationships between daily step counts and physical fitness in preschool children. Methods: Preschoolers’ step counts were assessed by ActiGraph accelerometers consecutively for seven days. Physical fitness was assessed by a 20 m shuttle run test (cardiorespiratory fitness), the handgrip and standing long jump tests (musculoskeletal fitness), and the 2 × 10 m shuttle run test (speed/agility). A composite score was created from the mean of the standardized values of all physical fitness tests. Results: A total of 301 preschoolers (134 girls, mean age 57.40 ± 5.47 months; 167 boys, mean age 58.10 ± 5.34 months) were included in the final analysis. Compared with the lowest tertile, boys and girls in the highest tertile of step counts achieved high physical fitness with odds ratio (OR) being 5.39 (95% CI = 1.65–17.59) and 4.42 (95% CI = 1.30–14.99), respectively, after adjusting for confounders. Meanwhile, a relationship was observed for each 1000 steps/day increment being associated with 43% (OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.10–1.85) and 62% (OR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.20–2.19) increment for high physical fitness in boys and girls, respectively. In addition, significant non-linear relationship was observed between daily steps and physical fitness in boys, which indicated that accumulated 8000 steps/day was associated with the highest ratio to achieve high physical fitness. Conclusions: Positive relationships between step counts and physical fitness were observed in preschool children, and the relationships were strongest for those who accumulated 8000 steps/day in boys. To confirm the findings in this study, well-designed and large-scale longitudinal studies are needed in the future.

“…For example, Liao et al (2016) showed that sedentary behavior and daily traveling by private motorized vehicle was associated with poor performance in abdominal muscular strength and endurance [22]. Cabanas-Sánchez et al (2018) found that sedentary time, diet quality, and physical activity influence children's physical fitness performance [23]. Ruedl et al (2019) studied the influences of lifestyle habits such as weekly leisure time, sports activities and daily electronic media usage on physical fitness.…”

Physical fitness is a powerful indicator of health. Sleep condition plays an essential role in maintaining quality of life and is an important marker that predicts physical fitness. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sleep conditions (sleep quality, sleep duration, bedtime) and multiple physical fitness indicators (body mass index (BMI), flexibility, abdominal muscle strength and endurance, cardiopulmonary endurance) in a well-characterized population of Taiwanese adults aged 23 to 65. The applied data were obtained from the National Physical Fitness Examination Survey 2014 conducted in Taiwan. We assessed the association of the sleep conditions with physical fitness performances in Taiwanese adults by using the multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) method with a total of 69,559 samples. The results show that sleep duration, sleep quality, and bedtime were statistically significant influence factors on physical fitness performances with different degrees. Gender was an important factor that affects the effects of daily sleep conditions on performances of physical fitness. Sleep duration was the most important factor as it was simultaneously correlated with BMI, sit-ups, and sit-and-reach indicators in both genders. Bedtime and sleep quality were only associated with sit-ups performance in both genders.
