In this episode I discuss with UBCO Professor, Ali McManus:

  • How we as parents model healthy eating and physical activity to our children
  • The guilt we may feel as parents when we prioritize our own physical activity and how we can rethink this
  • Trends in different areas of the world when it comes to childhood obesity and parent level of activity
  • The research Ali McManus and her team are conducting on sex and developmental-based differences in brain and cardiovascular health, and the impact of exercise, prolonged sitting and the environment.

Ali McManus is a Professor at UBCO. She trained as a physical education and biology teacher in the U.K., completed a Masters in Medical Sciences (specializing in pediatric cardiology) and a PhD in Pediatric Exercise Physiology. She joined the University of Hong Kong in 1994 and worked as a Professor of Pediatric Exercise Physiology for 19 years before joining UBCO in 2013. She runs the Pediatric Exercise Research Laboratory (PERL) at UBCO, where she and her team explore sex- and developmental-based differences in brain and cardiovascular health, and the impact of exercise, prolonged sitting and the environment.
