Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Background/objectives: Physical activity (PA) protects against a wide range of diseases. Habitual PA appears to be heritable, motivating the search for specific genetic variants that may inform efforts to promote PA and target the best type of PA for each individual.
90,667 European ancestry individuals
