WRPA = work-related physical activity (mostly physically active when working); TRPA = transport-related physical activity (upper quintile of MET-minutes/week spent with walking and cycling); HEPA = health-enhancing physical activity (at least 150 min per week moderate PA or cycling); MSPA = muscle-strengthening physical activity (at least twice per week muscle-strengthening activity); TPA = total physical activity (mostly physically active when working OR complying with HEPA guidelines).
