A research team from the UK, Netherlands, Norway, and Portugal, including Prof. Pedro Teixeira, was awarded nearly 6 million € to study physical activity and health in middle-aged men. European Football Fans in Training (EuroFIT) is 5-year study that will target male football fans at risk to participate in a lifestyle change program at their local clubs (FC Porto, Sporting CP and SL Benfica) in order to improve eating habits, increase activity and reduce sedentary time. The project kicks off in November 2013.
