Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews

The July 2010 issue of ESSR features the Perspectives for Progress, “Too Much Sitting: The Population Health Science of Sedentary Behavior” by Neville Owen, Geneviève N. Healy, Charles E. Matthews, and David W. Dunstan.  The Perspectives is based on Neville Owen’s President’s Lecture from ACSM’s 56th Annual Meeting held in May 2009. I highly recommend reading the full article and Commentary “Medical Hazards of Prolonged Sitting” by David R. Bassett, Jr., Patty Freedson, and Sarah Kozey.

This issue also features the article “Nonhomeostatic Control of Human Appetite and Physical Activity in Regulation of Energy Balance” by Katarina T. Borer. Associate Editor Barry Braun has prepared the Journal Club questions for this article, both available for free by going to the Journal Club topical collection. In future issues, look for the club icon near the article title denoting journal club questions. All in all, another great issue from the authors and editorial board!

This quarter’s Editor’s Picks are the top Most Viewed articles that site users are reading – I encourage you to check out both sections.
