PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT De novo hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), including gestational hypertension and preeclampsia/eclampsia, impact 10-15% of pregnancies and are considered salient risk factors for future cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (PA) is strongly recommended for CVD prevention; however, there is currently limited evidence on the importance of PA timing (early vs. mid- pregnancy and change across pregnancy) for HDP prevention. In addition, light-intensity PA has been linked to better cardiovascular risk profiles in the general adult population, but few studies have investigated associations of light-intensity PA during…
