title: Physical fitness, physical activity and blood pressure in children.
abstract: In numerous studies the relationship between physical fitness, physical activity and blood pressure have been evaluated. However, only a minority of the reported studies are controlled. This report gives a review of cross-sectional studies in children and longitudinal dynamic training studies in young adults below the age of thirty dealing with physical fitness/physical activity and blood pressure.
