| Description |
Youth’s physical activity and level of fitness decline mostly between adolescence and early adulthood. As a result, as the youths get older, non-communicable diseases rise. Medical students, who are assumed to have an extensive understanding of physical exercise and its benefits, are now less active than they were before attending graduate school. This study aimed to assess changes in physical fitness and physical activity of students over-time.
