Figure Lengend Snippet: Moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) duration (min/day) for males and females, categorized as active (black line box) or inactive (grey line box). Horizontal lines represent the median MVPA value for each sex. The MVPA values were obtained from child-worn accelerometer data for three consecutive days (including a weekend day), according Evanson's cut-offs.
Article Snippet: MVPA was monitored by means of a uniaxial accelerometer (Actigraph or ActiTrainer, ActiGraph, Pensacola, USA) that children wore on a hip belt over three consecutive days, including one weekend day (considered enough time to accurately estimate MVPA in children – , taking it off for shower, water-based activities, and sleep.
