Physical activity and obesity: is there a difference in association between the Asian- and African- Surinamese adult population?

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

The role of different physical activity (PA) characteristics, i.e. domain, duration and intensity in obesity prevention still requires investigation. Furthermore, ethnicity can modify the effect of PA on body composition. Therefore, we aim to describe the association between obesity and PA characteristics across the Asian- and African-Surinamese population, living in the capital of Suriname.
