“…Meeting health recommendations and abdominal adiposity WC, which is a marker of abdominal fat (18) , has been shown to be related to having breakfast (22) , fruit and vegetable consumption (23) , physical activity (24) and sedentary behaviours (25) . In addition, mounting evidence has demonstrated the benefits of regular physical activity as treatment for abdominal obesity in association with energy restriction (50) .…”

While WC has been shown to be related to each healthy behaviour (22)(23)(24)(25) , no data are available regarding the association with clustered behaviours.…”
