Joint models of aerobic activity and weightlifting for all-cause mortality risk. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals are presented, weighted estimates to the whole cohort.

		Aerobic activity
		No MVPA	Some MVPA	Meets MVPA	Exceeds MVPA
Weightlifting	None	1.00 reference	0.76 (0.73–0.78)	0.68 (0.65–0.70)	0.66 (0.62–0.70)
	<1x/month	0.78 (0.66–0.93)	0.65 (0.54–0.78)	0.67 (0.52–0.85)	0.51 (0.27–0.99)
	1–3x/month	0.85 (0.75–0.97)	0.65 (0.59–0.72)	0.56 (0.49–0.62)	0.55 (0.41–0.74)
	1–2x/week	0.80 (0.71–0.92)	0.67 (0.63–0.72)	0.59 (0.54–0.64)	0.53 (0.44–0.63)
	3–7+x/week	0.91 (0.80–1.04)	0.73 (0.68–0.79)	0.61 (0.57–0.65)	0.63 (0.57–0.69)

Models adjusted for age at questionnaire (where weightlifting was assessed), sex, education, smoking, alcohol intake, current BMI, race, and number of comorbidities. Aerobic moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) categories are none (0 minutes per week), some (1–149 minutes/week), meets (150–300 minutes/week) and exceeds (301+ minutes/week). p value for the weightlifting*aerobic activity term was 0.69.
