Data for sitting times are median (25, 75 %) except where indicated as mean (SD). Spearman’s correlation (ρ), Pearson’s correlation (r), findings in bold are significant. aOnly 124 participants reported sitting for work on the weekend with median time of 1.50 h/day (25 %: 0.75, 75 %: 2.50) within those who worked
