leo_physical_activity.Rd

Here, using IPAQ minutes/week as input, classify regular activity according to AHA (150/75/equivalent combination) rules:

  • Moderate: \(\ge 150\) min/week; or

  • Vigorous: \(\ge 75\) min/week; or

  • Equivalent: \(moderate + 2 \times vigorous \ge 150.\)

Note

Adults should pursue at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity physical activity, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activities. (Circulation, 2010, source)

  • ≥150 min/wk moderate intensity

  • ≥75 min/wk vigorous intensity

  • Combination
