Welcome 🤙🏻 to the BASES SIG. This platform will be used to share knowledge 🤓 and engage in open discussion with a wider audience regarding paediatric exercise science 👶🏋️♀️🤸♀️🏊♀️👩🏽🔬. Please inbox if you’re interested in supporting the SIG and would like to get involved. 👍🏻
Things have settled a little. So, the podcast is back with a slightly different format. The idea is to breakdown papers in bite size chunks. Today we break down a paper from @bikedocter and team. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/6T3…
Exploring how family influences impact children’s development of fundamental movement skills (FMS). Key barriers: parental knowledge, self-efficacy, & home environment. Empowering parents & enhancing community initiatives could improve engagement.

New research measures teachers’ capability, opportunity, & motivation (COM-B model) to deliver physical activity in schools. Study shows strong model fit (CFI = .945, RMSEA = .066) and good reliability (α = .75-.81). #Education #PhysicalActivity #COMBModel @davidlubans

I am sharing the release of this highly relevant book for school physical education practice, in which I wrote the chapter "Motor Skill Assessment in Children and Adolescents." @aiesep @IMDRC_MotorDev link.springer.com/book/10.10…
New review: “Effect of Accelerometer Cut-Points on Preschoolers’ Physical Activity & Sedentary Time” highlights significant variability in activity estimates using different cut-points. More research needed to optimise data processing methods for young children.
ACL injuries are ⬆️ among children, often due to a lack of basic movement skills. Focusing on fundamentals in PE and sports coaching may help reduce injury risk. Let’s prioritize proper movement skill development. @MikeDunky @CovUni_PASES theconversation.com/more-chi…

It’s been a while!! Finishing my PhD (viva next week) learning the ropes in a new job and a newborn have restricted my bandwidth!
However, next week I am done (with my PhD, not my children….. hopefully) and I have already lined up new podcast guests!
