Although the time spent sitting in motorized vehicles has been determined to be adversely associated with cardiometabolic health, its association with other health indicators remains unclear.
This study examined associations between traveling by private motorized vehicle and 4 indicators of physical fitness in adults.
Data from 52,114 Taiwanese adults aged 20 to 65 years who participated in the 2013 National Adults Fitness Survey were used. The examined variables were height, body mass, and performance in modified sit-and-reach (flexibility), bent-leg sit-up (abdominal muscular strength and endurance), and a 3-min step test (cardiorespiratory endurance). Participants were asked on how many days they had used a private car or motorcycle for traveling from place to place and categorized as non-, occasional, and daily private motorized vehicle travelers. Logistic and linear regression models were used to examine associations between the categories of using private motorized vehicles to travel and physical fitness performance.
After an adjustment for potential demographic and behavioral confounders, daily traveling by private motorized vehicle was associated with a higher probability of overweight (odds ratio = 1.18), lower performance of abdominal muscular strength and endurance (-0.37 times/min), and lower cardiorespiratory fitness (-0.60 physical fitness index) than was traveling that did not involve private motorized vehicles.
The results suggest that in addition to unfavorable cardiorespiratory fitness and a risk of overweight, daily traveling by private motorized vehicle is associated with poor performance in abdominal muscular strength and endurance.
尽管已确定乘坐机动车的时间与心脏代谢健康存在负相关，但其与其他健康指标的关联仍不明确。
本研究调查了成年人乘坐私人机动车出行与4项体能指标之间的关联。
使用了来自52114名年龄在20至65岁之间、参与2013年全国成年人健身调查的台湾成年人的数据。所检测的变量包括身高、体重，以及改良坐立前屈（柔韧性）、屈膝仰卧起坐（腹部肌肉力量和耐力）和3分钟台阶测试（心肺耐力）的表现。参与者被问及他们使用私家车或摩托车往返各地的天数，并被分类为非私人机动车旅行者、偶尔使用私人机动车旅行者和每天使用私人机动车旅行者。使用逻辑回归和线性回归模型来研究使用私人机动车出行的类别与体能表现之间的关联。
在对潜在的人口统计学和行为混杂因素进行调整后，与不涉及私人机动车的出行相比，每天乘坐私人机动车出行与超重的可能性更高（优势比 = 1.18）、腹部肌肉力量和耐力表现更低（-0.37次/分钟）以及心肺适能更低（-0.60体能指数）相关。
结果表明，除了对心肺适能不利和有超重风险外，每天乘坐私人机动车出行还与腹部肌肉力量和耐力表现不佳有关。
