Data are means ± standard deviation. Analyses were performed using mixed models adjusted for baseline PA, BMI, race, age, and education.

Full models were performed, and interaction terms from full models are displayed above. Interaction terms were removed and main effects models were rerun; time and group effects displayed above represent those from main effects models.
