Exploring the clustering of health behaviours rather than individual factors, our new findings indicate how different positive health behaviours (e.g. exercise, diet, substance avoidance, sleep) may act collectively to improve mental health outcomes: https://t.co/m7ZlnEgIW9

Also, we found that boys were significantly more likely to engage in 60 mins of MVPA a day and adhere to the WHO recommendation than girls. Gender disparities in PA start from a very young age. (5/6)
