  1. iPA Physical activity intervention, iSED Sedentary behaviour intervention, C Control group, SD Standard deviation. A more favourable self-reported physical activity was defined using a cut-off coinciding with approximately 150 min/week of accelerometer assessed MVPA. A more favourable self-reported daily sitting time was defined as less than 7–9 h
