Measures
PA data were collected before and after the completion of training, not during training, so did not include PA associ¬ated with exercise training sessions. Physical activity was measured using Actigraph (model 7164) accelerometers worn at the waist and wrist during waking hours for 7 consecu¬tive days. Data from the waist-mounted accelerometers are reported here. Accelerometry data were considered valid and useable if the accelerometer was worn for a minimum of 3 days and for at least 10 hours a day. The accelerometry data were defined as sedentary activity at ,100 counts per minute, light physical activity (LPA) at 100–1,951 counts per minute, and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) at $1,952 counts per minute.13–15 Sedentary time was reported as minutes per day and as the percentage of monitored time.
