Note: MVPA, moderate to vigorous physical activity; na, not applicable; PA, physical activity; TDEE, total daily energy expenditure.

^*Values reflect standardized regression coefficients (β) and p value for final model after entering time spent (min/week) in endurance exercise, resistance exercise, sports, swimming, walking, and other PA, adjusting for ethnicity.

^†No exercise types identified by best subset modelling.
