MET, metabolic equivalent (minutes/week); BMI, body mass index (kg/m2); WC, waist circumference (cm); SBP, systolic blood pressure (mm/Hg); DBP, diastolic blood pressure (mm/Hg); FPG, fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L); TG, triglycerides (mmol/L); Chol, cholesterol (mmol/L); HDL, high-density lipoprotein (mmol/L); LDL, low-density lipoprotein (mmol/L); PCS, physical component summary (score); MCS, mental component summary (score).

a Univariate latent growth curve models were used as statistical method, separately for each of the measurement. Statistical significance was set at p ≤ .05: *p < .05, ** p < .01, *** p < .001.
