Whilst women reported more positive changes in exercise behaviour, young people (18-29y) reported more negative changes (both p &lt; 0.001). Individuals who had more positive exercise behaviours reported better mental health and well-being (p &lt; 0.001). Although there were no differences in PA between countries, individuals in New Zealand reported better mental health and well-being (p &lt; 0.001).ConclusionThe initial COVID-19 restrictions have differentially impacted upon PA habits of individuals based upon their age and sex, and therefore have important implications for international policy and guideline recommendations. Public health interventions that encourage PA should target specific groups (e.g., men, young adults) who are most vulnerable to the negative effects of physical distancing and/or self-isolation.</abstract><type>Journal Article</type><journal>Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport</journal><volume>24</volume><journalNumber>4</journalNumber><paginationStart>320</paginationStart><paginationEnd>326</paginationEnd><publisher>Elsevier BV</publisher><placeOfPublication/><isbnPrint/><isbnElectronic/><issnPrint>1440-2440</issnPrint><issnElectronic/><keywords>Coronavirus disease; pandemic; lifestyle behavior change; exercise; depression; sedentary time</keywords><publishedDay>1</publishedDay><publishedMonth>4</publishedMonth><publishedYear>2021</publishedYear><publishedDate>2021-04-01</publishedDate><doi>10.1016/j.jsams.2020.11.016</doi><url/><notes/><college>COLLEGE NANME</college><department>Sport and Exercise Sciences</department><CollegeCode>COLLEGE CODE</CollegeCode><DepartmentCode>STSC</DepartmentCode><institution>Swansea University</institution><apcterm/><lastEdited>2021-05-01T12:04:47.1101372</lastEdited><Created>2020-11-25T10:05:28.4115256</Created><path><level id="1">Faculty of Science and Engineering</level><level id="2">School of Aerospace, Civil, Electrical, General and Mechanical Engineering - Sport and Exercise Sciences</level></path><authors><author><firstname>James</firstname><surname>Faulkner</surname><order>1</order></author><author><firstname>Wendy J.</firstname><surname>O&#x2019;Brien</surname><order>2</order></author><author><firstname>Bronagh</firstname><surname>McGrane</surname><order>3</order></author><author><firstname>Daniel</firstname><surname>Wadsworth</surname><order>4</order></author><author><firstname>John</firstname><surname>Batten</surname><order>5</order></author><author><firstname>Christopher D.</firstname><surname>Askew</surname><order>6</order></author><author><firstname>Claire</firstname><surname>Badenhorst</surname><order>7</order></author><author><firstname>Erin</firstname><surname>Byrd</surname><order>8</order></author><author><firstname>Maura</firstname><surname>Coulter</surname><order>9</order></author><author><firstname>Nick</firstname><surname>Draper</surname><order>10</order></author><author><firstname>Catherine</firstname><surname>Elliot</surname><order>11</order></author><author><firstname>Simon</firstname><surname>Fryer</surname><order>12</order></author><author><firstname>Michael J.</firstname><surname>Hamlin</surname><order>13</order></author><author><firstname>John</firstname><surname>Jakeman</surname><order>14</order></author><author><firstname>Kelly</firstname><surname>Mackintosh</surname><orcid>0000-0003-0355-6357</orcid><order>15</order></author><author><firstname>Melitta</firstname><surname>McNarry</surname><orcid>0000-0003-0813-7477</orcid><order>16</order></author><author><firstname>Andrew</firstname><surname>Mitchelmore</surname><order>17</order></author><author><firstname>John</firstname><surname>Murphy</surname><order>18</order></author><author><firstname>Helen</firstname><surname>Ryan-Stewart</surname><order>19</order></author><author><firstname>Zoe</firstname><surname>Saynor</surname><order>20</order></author><author><firstname>Mia</firstname><surname>Schaumberg</surname><order>21</order></author><author><firstname>Keeron</firstname><surname>Stone</surname><order>22</order></author><author><firstname>Lee</firstname><surname>Stoner</surname><order>23</order></author><author><firstname>Beth</firstname><surname>Stuart</surname><order>24</order></author><author><firstname>Danielle</firstname><surname>Lambrick</surname><order>25</order></author></authors><documents><document><filename>55752__18742__0155fe3cdfe241ce9a01fc325f49826c.pdf</filename><originalFilename>55752.pdf</originalFilename><uploaded>2020-11-25T10:07:06.0489707</uploaded><type>Output</type><contentLength>1066768</contentLength><contentType>application/pdf</contentType><version>Accepted Manuscript</version><cronfaStatus>true</cronfaStatus><embargoDate>2021-12-03T00:00:00.0000000</embargoDate><documentNotes>&#xA9;2020 All rights reserved.
