aDifference in mean change adjusted for baseline value.
bTotal exercise minutes was computed by adding total aerobic minutes to total strength minutes.
cTotal aerobic minutes was computed using moderate minutes plus 2 times the vigorous minutes.
dCapped at 420 minutes per week.
eStrength guidelines is engaging in strength exercise ≥2 times per week.
