Recently, there has been an increase in international research and surveillance on physical fitness creating a need for setting international priorities that could help guide future efforts.<h4>Objective</h4>This study aimed to produce a list of the top 10 international priorities for research and surveillance on physical fitness among children and adolescents.<h4>Methods</h4>Using a twin-panel Delphi method, two independent panels consisting of 46 international experts were identified (panel 1 = 28, panel 2 = 18). The panel participants were asked to list up to five priorities for research or surveillance (round 1), and then rated the items from their own panel on a 5-point Likert scale Sports medicine (Auckland, N.Z.)549-564https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9399984biostudies-literatureTop 10 International Priorities for Physical Fitness Research and Surveillance Among Children and Adolescents: A Twin-Panel Delphi Study.PMC9399984Zhang KFraser BJLubans DRCameron CPrince SATimmons BWCadenas-Sanchez CSilva DRRubin LServais JLang JJJurak GLiu YBasterfield LSmith JJKidokoro TSilva DASGomes TNQFOyeyemi ALRoberts KCSong YBlain DOJanssen IFaigenbaum ADTremblay MSWong SHSManyanga TOrtega FBCarson VAndersen LBCsanyi TGarcia-Hermoso ALane KNStratton GMota JColley RCKaj MOlds TBerglind DLof MOnywera VOAgostinis-Sobrinho CGribbon ARamirez-Velez RMagnussen CGMcGrath RTomkinson GRfalseTop 10 International Priorities for Physical Fitness Research and Surveillance Among Children and Adolescents: A Twin-Panel Delphi Study.<h4>Background</h4>The measurement of physical fitness has a history that dates back nearly 200 years.
