“…Recommendations for physical activity levels are issued by most governments as part of public health measures (Pate, Pratt, Blair, & Al., 1995). However, they tend to be updated frequently or adjusted due to external circumstances, such as changes in diet and food pricing (Duffey, Gordon-Larsen, Shikany, Guilkey, & Al., 2010), sedentary lifestyle (Martinez-Gonzalez, 1999), technology (Kautiainen, Koivusilta, Lintonen, Virtanen, & Rimpela, 2005), the built environment (Saelens, Sallis, Black, & Chen, 2003), family structure (Lissau & Sorensen, 1994) and social influences (Mcferran, Dahl, Fitzsimons, & Morales, 2010). Consequently, it has become increasingly important, from a public health policy-makers perspective, to develop reliably measuring physical activity intensity to ground public health guidelines.…”
