@IJBNPA Workplace physical activity interventions may enhance health. Numerous barriers including task priority, lack of peer support and social norm should be overcome to sustain the workplace PA promotion

[Dr Baskaran Chandrasekaran @BaskaranChandr2]

Workplace physical activity interventions may enhance health. However adherence to such interventions may be hindered by several factors at individual, interpersonal and organisational (task priority, absence of social norm and reward, multiple role by women

Hourly short bouts of stair climbing during prolonged sitting are favourable in improving agility (- 0.5 seconds) and shoulder discomfort (mean difference = 0.29) in sedentary office conditions

[Dr Baskaran Chandrasekaran @BaskaranChandr2]

Finally, after a long wait, the findings of the counterbalanced randomised trial exploring the effects of stair climbing interruptions on musculoskeletal discomfort and fitness variables during prolonged sitting are out. https://t.co/ucAvkPeiIm

Accelerometer-derived PA expressed in...
...absolute intensity terms, 99% of study participants fulfilled PA recommendations.
...relative intensity terms, only 21% did.

We should think twice of what has been measured, and what is often communicated.
