To describe physical activity (PA) and inactivity levels of Filipino youth aged 14-16 y.
PA type and patterns were assessed in an adolescent cohort enrolled in the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey.
A total of 1053 males (aged 15.6+/-0.5 y; body mass index (BMI)=18.6+/-2.6 kg/m(2)) and 990 females (aged 14.6+/-0.5 y; BMI=18.8+/-2.4 kg/m(2)).
PA was assessed by (1) self-reported usual PA (questionnaire); (2) 24-h objective monitoring (Caltrac accelerometer); and (3) 24 h recalls of PA during the objectively monitored time frame.
As measured by Caltrac, males expended 378.0+/-164.5 kcal and females 271.0+/-105.4 kcal. The measurement approaches employed agreed in expected ways, given the limitations of each. Together the approaches used indicated that the primary sources of PA for this population are chores and active commuting. In all, 40% of the sample walked to school, less than 1% rode a bicycle, 22% rode in/on motorized transport, and 37% used some combination of walking and motorized transport. Further, gender differences exist for type, frequency, and duration of physical activities performed by Filipino youth. Specifically, females report engaging in few leisure-time physical activities and more household chores. In total, 48% of Filipino youth report watching > or =2 h/day of television; relatively few youth (7%) report watching >4 h/day at this time. An 18% of males report no vigorous activities compared to 87% of females.
Clear gender differences in PA patterns and levels exist in Filipino adolescents. Nonsport/exercise type activities (eg chores and active commuting) currently provide a large proportion of daily activity for both males and females, however. It is anticipated that as modernization and technological advancement continue in this developing country, these primary sources of PA will decrease.
描述14 - 16岁菲律宾青少年的身体活动(PA)和不活动水平。
在参与宿务纵向健康与营养调查的青少年队列中评估PA类型和模式。
共1053名男性(年龄15.6±0.5岁;体重指数(BMI)=18.6±2.6kg/m²)和990名女性(年龄14.6±0.5岁;BMI=18.8±2.4kg/m²)。
通过以下方式评估PA:(1)自我报告的日常PA(问卷调查);(2)24小时客观监测(Caltrac加速度计);(3)在客观监测时间段内对PA的24小时回顾。
通过Caltrac测量,男性消耗378.0±164.5千卡,女性消耗271.0±105.4千卡。考虑到每种测量方法的局限性,所采用的测量方法以预期方式一致。综合使用的方法表明,该人群PA的主要来源是家务和积极通勤。总体而言,40%的样本步行上学,不到1%骑自行车,22%乘坐机动交通工具,37%使用步行和机动交通工具的某种组合。此外,菲律宾青少年进行的体育活动类型、频率和持续时间存在性别差异。具体而言,女性报告参与的休闲体育活动较少,家务较多。总体而言,48%的菲律宾青少年报告每天看电视≥2小时;此时相对较少的青少年(7%)报告每天看电视>4小时。18%的男性报告没有剧烈活动,而女性为87%。
菲律宾青少年在PA模式和水平上存在明显的性别差异。然而,非运动/锻炼类型的活动(如家务和积极通勤)目前为男性和女性提供了很大一部分日常活动。预计随着这个发展中国家的现代化和技术进步继续,这些PA的主要来源将减少。
