Moderate intense physical activity depends on selected Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) cut-off and type of data analysis.

<h4>Background</h4>Accelerometry data are frequently analyzed without considering whether moderate-to-vigorous physical activities (MVPA) were performed in bouts of >10 minutes as defined in most physical activity guidelines. We aimed i) to quantify MVPA by using different commonly-ap...
