Key Points Question Is health-related physical fitness during adolescence associated with work ability at the middle and end of working life? Findings In this cohort study of 1207 individuals in Finland, higher cardiorespiratory fitness, but not musculoskeletal fitness or body mass index, in adolescence was associated with higher work ability and lower sickness absence in adulthood.
The aim of this study was to examine the secular trends in fundamental movement skills (FMS) among 15-16-year-old adolescents at two assessment points scheduled in 2003 and 2010, and to investigate the associations between FMS, physical activity (PA) and body mass index (BMI). In 2003, self-reported PA, weight and height, and objective FMS scores were collected from 2390 students and in 2010, similar data was generated from a second sample of 1346 students.
