Publication Open Access Gamified family-based health exercise intervention to improve adherence to 24-h movement behaviors recommendations in children: "3, 2, 1 Move on Study"(BMC, 2023) Alonso Martínez, Alicia; Legarra Gorgoñón, Gaizka; García Alonso, Yesenia; Ramírez Vélez, Robinson; Alonso Martínez, Loreto; Erice Echegaray, Blanca; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaBackground Evidence suggests that movement patterns, including physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep duration, throughout a 24-h period, have a signifcant impact on biological processes and health outcomes for both young and adult populations. However, 80% of adolescents worldwide are not sufciently active, and many children do not meet international physical activity recommendations for their age. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a 12-week gamifed family-based health and exercise intervention on physical ftness, basic motor competencies, mental and behavioral health, and adherence to 24-h movement guidelines in children aged 4 to 5 years old. The study will evaluate changes in sedentary levels, physical ftness, basic motor competencies, mental and behavioral disorders, adherence to the exercise program, and compliance with physical activity recom‑ mendations. In addition, the aim of this protocol is to describe the scientifc rationale in detail and to provide informa‑ tion about the study procedures. Methods/design A total of 80 children, aged 4 to 5 years old, will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of two groups: the exercise group and the routine care group. The exercise group will undergo a 12-week exercise interven‑ tion, followed by a 12-week follow-up period. On the other hand, the routine care group will undergo a 12-week period of routine care, followed by a 12-week follow-up control period. The exercise program will be implemented in a family setting and facilitated through a gamifed web platform with online supervision, with the hypothesis that it will have a positive impact on physical ftness, anthropometric measures, basic motor competencies, and adherence to 24-h movement guidelines. Discussion The results of this study will provide valuable insights into the impact of a gamifed, family-oriented health and exercise program on various aspects of health, including physical ftness, basic motor competencies, mental and behavioral well-being, and adherence to 24-h movement guidelines. The fndings will contribute to clos‑ ing the gap in current knowledge on the efectiveness of these types of interventions for children and their parents. These fndings will also contribute to the development of future guidelines for promoting physical activity in children
