The purpose of this study was to quantify sedentary time among recreational and Masters (competitive) athletes aged 55 and older. A cross-sectional survey including questions on demographics, sport participation, as well as a short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and the Measure of Older Adult's Sedentary Time questionnaire was administered (n = 203). Male Masters athletes reported more time spent in vigorous intensity physical activity and less time watching TV than recreational athletes. Among females, being a Masters athlete was associated with being more sedentary than being a recreational athlete, while among males, being a recreational athlete was associated with being more sedentary. The intensity and duration that older Masters and recreational athletes spent in their sport was inversely associated with the amount of sedentary time accumulated. Future research using inclinometers is needed to further elucidate sedentary time in older male and female athletes.
本研究的目的是量化55岁及以上的业余和大师级（竞技）运动员的久坐时间。进行了一项横断面调查，其中包括有关人口统计学、体育活动参与情况的问题，以及国际体力活动问卷简表和老年人久坐时间测量问卷（n = 203）。男性大师级运动员报告称，他们进行高强度体育活动的时间更多，看电视的时间比业余运动员少。在女性中，成为大师级运动员与比业余运动员久坐时间更长有关，而在男性中，成为业余运动员与久坐时间更长有关。老年大师级和业余运动员在其运动中所花费的强度和持续时间与积累的久坐时间量呈负相关。需要使用倾角计进行进一步研究，以阐明老年男女运动员的久坐时间。
