Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of primary care referrals to community physical activity programs for overweight and obese youth aged 6-18 years on objectively measured physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness, as well as other cardiovascular health indicators. We hypothesize that physical activity referrals will result in higher levels of physical activity and fitness.
