Background

Despite the wide documentation of the physical/psychological benefits derived from regular physical activity (PA), high levels of inactivity are reported among people with Down syndrome.

Physical activity may serve as a helpful avenue to promote physical and emotional well-being in individuals with Down syndrome. This study, conducted in Italy, sought to explore parents' perspectives of children (7-27 years) with Down syndrome engagement in physical activity.
