Values presented as mean and standard deviation ( ± SD).
Fig 2.
Comparison of physical activity at different intensities in adulthood according to sports participation in childhood and adolescence by sex (males n = 65; females n = 64).
Note: Both = sports participation in childhood and adolescence; Any = sports participation only in one phase: childhood or adolescence; None = Did not participate in sports in childhood or adolescence. ☨ = P <0.05, both is different from any none; ** = P<0.05, none is different from any and both. All comparisons by GEE were controlled by the total time of accelerometer use (min/day).
