Females of all ages are less active than their male peers. Two studies, presented Jan. 6 at a major academic conference, reveal the gender difference in activity levels among school children and the over 70s. Both studies show males to be more physically active than females. The two studies are being presented at the UK Society for Behavioral Medicine annual conference (incorporating the National Prevention Research Initiative conference) at the University of Exeter.
