Notes: AEE = activity energy expenditure; DLW = doubly labeled water; IC = indirect calorimetry; ICC = intraclass correlation coefficient; SWA = SenseWear Pro armband; and TEE = total energy expenditure. Criterion values for TEE were from DLW. Criterion values for AEE were calculated from TEE, as measured by DLW, and resting metabolic rate, as measured by IC. Day = 24-h period.
