Young adulthood is a particularly high risk time for excess weight gain, yet factors related to weight gain prevention in this population are poorly understood. Although moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is a primary component of many prevention efforts, recent research suggests that it may be insufficient to protect against weight gain for many individuals, likely because other physical activity and eating-related factors also influence weight. This study aimed to examine whether key eating- and physical activity related behavioral and psychological factors were associated with weight change among young adults meeting national physical activity guidelines. Young adults (ages 21-30; N=69) in the normal weight-range who met national physical activity recommendations had their weight measured by research staff, wore an accelerometer for one week, and completed self-report and interview-based measures of their weight history and key eating- and physical activity related behavioral and psychological factors. Participants gained an average of .91 kg over the past three years and engaged in an average of 274.04 minutes/week of accelerometer-measured bouted MVPA. Higher frequency of eating out was associated with greater weight gain, such that individuals above the median for weight gain ate out 7% more often than those below the median. Calorie, fat, and added-sugar intake, as well as sedentary behavior, light activity, and unbouted MVPA were unrelated to weight change. Greater hedonic hunger, dietary disinhibition, and food cravings, and lower self-efficacy for healthy eating were related to greater weight loss in those who had lost weight over the past three years, but were unrelated to weight change in those who were weight stable or who had gained weight. This study provides a preliminary investigation into factors associated with weight gain in active young adults and suggests that eating out may be a particularly useful target for weight gain prevention efforts in this population. Future research should address some of the limitations of this study, including using a longitudinal design, objectively assessing all weights, and recruiting a larger sample.

In 2008, the U.S. federal government issued fully approved physical activity guidelines for the first time. The idea that physical activity impacts health can be traced as far back as Hippocrates, and the science around the linkages between physical activity and health has continuously accumulated. On April 14-15, 2015, the Institute of Medicine's Roundtable on Obesity Solutions held a 2-day workshop to explore the state of the science regarding the impact of physical activity in the prevention and treatment of overweight and obesity and to highlight innovative strategies for promoting physical activity across different segments of the population. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions from this workshop.

We are surrounded by people who are selling weight loss techniques that do not work. Every year Americans spend tens of billions of dollars on diet books, diet products, and gym memberships. In spite of this, every year more of us become overweight. We need the knowledge that can help us to be better judges of weight loss claims. Why Diet and Exercise Fail looks at the track record of popular weight loss techniques, including high fat diets, low carbohydrate diets, low sugar diets, low calorie diets, and exercise. It shows how conventional wisdom on weight loss is wrong and how recent discoveries in weight loss research implicate a previously unsuspected factor in modern weight gain.

Avoiding overweight and obesity is the best-established diet-related risk factor for cancer. The proportion of people who are overweight/obese is increasing, and the amount of physical activity is decreasing in most populations, including urban populations in many developing countries. The increasing prevalence of overweight/obesity is presumably due to the increasing availability of highly palatable, high-energy foods, and an increasing sedentary lifestyle due to mechanisation of both workplace and leisure activities. Overweight/obesity and reduced physical activity increases the risk of cancers in various organs. Maintaining a healthy body weight and regular physical activity is the second most important way to prevent cancer, after tobacco control. The suggestions of possible public health actions to tackle these risk factors include the promotion of balanced diets, which are not excessive in energy, and broad education and planning to enable and encourage physical activity during work and leisure. Recommendations and a full discussion of these topics are included in the sixth volume in this series of Handbooks.

Introduction:Globally, over 1.97 billion adults and 338 million children and adolescents are living with overweight and obesity, increasing the risk of numerous co-morbidities, including at least 12 cancers [1]. WCRF/AICR conducted a literature review of diet and physical activity as determinants of weight gain, overweight and obesity in adults and children. We also introduce a novel evidence-based policy framework for promoting physical activity, and linked database, currently in development as part of the EU-funded CO-CREATE project on child and adolescent obesity prevention.Materials and Methods:Evidence on diet and physical activity as determinants and risk of weight gain, overweight and obesity was systematically extracted from existing reviews and a systematic search for recent meta-analyses, then collated and analysed. The WCRF Continuous Update Project Expert Panel drew conclusions about which exposures influence risk of weight gain, overweight and obesity, using pre-defined criteria that included evidence of biological plausibility.Results:The Panel identified strong evidence that several diet and physical activity related exposures influence the risk of weight gain, overweight and obesity in adults and children. The CUP Panel judged there is strong evidence that the following factors decrease the risk of weight gain, overweight and obesity: walking; aerobic physical activity; foods containing dietary fibre; a u2018Mediterranean typeu2019 dietary pattern; and having been breastfed. They also judged there is strong evidence the following factors increase risk: screen time; sugar sweetened drinks; u2018fast foodsu2019; and a u2018Western typeu2019 diet.Separate conclusions were drawn for adults and children in relation to screen time, considered a marker of sedentary time.However, the Panel noted that as exposures tend to cluster, physiologically interact and share common biological mechanisms, they should not be regarded as absolutely u2018singularu2019 but an integrated concept of interrelated exposures within a pattern of lifestyle.Discussion:Healthy dietary patterns help prevent excess weight gain. Achieving such patterns requires attention to the broader economic, environmental and social factors that influence and constrain peopleu2019s behaviour. The findings of this report support the need for evidence-based public health policy to help create health-enabling environments, particularly for children and adolescents. The WCRF International MOVING framework [2] presents a package of policies to promote physical activity, which alongside wider public health policy can help address the multiple drivers of overweight and obesity.References:[1] WCRF/AICR.

A lifetime of fitness in just minutes a day. I don't have time . . . I'm too tired . . . I hate gyms . . . These are among the most common excuses for not exercising. But the truth is that getting in shape requires less time and effort than you might think. Examining everything from pre-workout stretches to post-workout protein shakes, this science-backed book slices through fitness fads and misconceptions to reveal how you can exercise quickly and effectively. For example, is it best to exercise in the morning? Does aerobic activity burn more fat than weight lifting? You'll also learn how to get and stay motivated, what equipment to buy (and what not to waste money on), which dietary supplements really help, and how to combat muscle soreness. Fitter Faster explains how to: Find the right balance between cardio, strength, and stretching * Slash workout times with high-intensity interval training * Prevent boredom * Enhance fat-burning The accompanying Fitter Faster Plan, developed with celebrity trainer Brad Kolowich, Jr., pulls everything together. Requiring as little as 15 minutes a day, these quick workouts maximize efficiency-allowing you to reap the greatest benefit in the shortest possible time...all without ever having to set foot in a gym. With photographs illustrating each exercise routine, this eye-opening book will forever change the way you work out- and help you get fitter faster.

The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.

Regulating Obesity?: Government, Society, and Questions of Health explores the effectiveness of legal interventions aimed at promoting healthier lifestyles. In this book, W.A. Bogart suggests that the government's emphasis on encouraging weight loss and preventing excess weight gain have largely failed to resolve obesity and have instead fueled prejudice against overweight people. He suggests that a major challenge lies in shifting norms away from stigmatization of the obese and towards more nutritious and healthy lifestyle habits in addition to the acceptance of bodies in all shapes and sizes. Part of this challenge lies in the complex effects of law and its relationship with norms, including the unintended consequences of regulation. Regulating Obesity? begins by arguing for the protection of the overweight and obese from discrimination through human rights laws. It then examines three other areas of interventions--marketing, fiscal policy, and physical activity--and how these interventions operate within the context of "health equity." Professor Bogart evaluates the effectiveness of legal regulation in addressing obesity and concludes that a healthier population is more important than a thinner population. Regulating Obesity? is the first book to engage in the comprehensive evaluation of this role for law and the implications of society's fascination with regulating consumption.
