Systematic review of active commuting to school and childrens physical activity and weight.

Systematic review of active commuting to school and childrens physical activity and weight. The recent decline in children's active commuting (walking or biking) to school has become an important public health issue. Recent programs have promoted the positive effects of active commuting on physical activity (PA) and overweight. However, the evidence supporting such interventions among schoolchildren has not been previously evaluated. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Physical Activity and Health Pubmed
