* significant coefficient at p < 0.05 ** significant coefficient at p < 0.01
Δ… change in objectively determined sedentary behavior over 12 months
MVPA… moderate-to-vigorous physical activity over entire week;
EI… calculated energy intake
N/A indicates that variables were not included in the regression model
Models 1 and 2 are additionally adjusted for sex, age, and baseline body composition
