Staff within o... Read More about Participant and workplace champion experiences of an intervention designed to reduce sitting time in desk-based workers: SMART work & life.

A multicomponent intervention to reduce daily sitting time in office workers: the SMART Work & Life three-arm cluster RCT (2023)
Journal Article
Edwardson, C. L., Maylor, B. D., Biddle, S. J., Clemes, S. A., Cox, E., Davies, M. J., …Clarke-Cornwell, A. M. (2023). A multicomponent intervention to reduce daily sitting time in office workers: the SMART Work & Life three-arm cluster RCT. Public Health Research, 11(6), 1-229. https://doi.org/10.3310/dnyc2141

Background: Office workers spend 70–85% of their time at work sitting. High levels of sitting have been linked to poor physiological and psychological health. Evidence shows the need for fully powered randomised controlled trials, with long-term foll...

Journal Article
D. Maylor, B., L. Edwardson, C., M. Clarke-Cornwell, A., J. Davies, M., P. Dawkins, N., W. Dunstan, D., …V. Rowlands, A. (2023). Physical Activity Assessed by Wrist and Thigh Worn Accelerometry and Associations with Cardiometabolic Health. Sensors, 23(17), https://doi.org/10.3390/s23177353

Physical activity is increasingly being captured by accelerometers worn on different body locations. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between physical activity volume (average acceleration), intensity (intensity gradient) and car...

In free-living environments, continuous walking can be challenging to achieve without encountering interruptions, making it difficult to define a continuous walking event. While limited research has been conducted to define a continuous walking event... Read More about Defining continuous walking events in free-living environments : mind the gap.
