Genetic Influences on Individual Differences in Exercise Behavior during Adolescence

Genetic Influences on Individual Differences in Exercise Behavior during Adolescence

The aim of this study was to investigate the degree to which genetic and environmental influences affect variation in adolescent exercise behavior. Data on regular leisure time exercise activities were analyzed in 8,355 adolescent twins, from three-age cohorts (13-14, 15-16, and 17–19 years). Exerci...
