Summary

ACS examined the potential influence of intermittent physical activity breaks of various intensities (control, light, moderate, vigorous) on measures of immediate mental performance, mood, hunger and several metabolic outcomes in children aged 7-11 years. We build upon previous work to hypothesize that higher-intensity intermittent physical activity breaks throughout an 8-hour day will improve immediate mental performance, mood, and post-exercise physical activity levels, while reducing hunger and post-exercise food intake.

Conditions

  • Childhood Obesity

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Light-Intensity Condition

The light-intensity condition consisted of 8 hours of sitting interrupted with 2--minute, light--intensity activity breaks performed at 25% of heart rate reserve (HRR) every 18 minutes. Standardized meals were provided.

BEHAVIORAL

Moderate-Intensity Condition

The moderate-intensity condition consisted of 8 hours of sitting interrupted with 2--minute, moderate-intensity activity breaks performed at 50% of heart rate reserve (HRR) every 18 minutes. Standardized meals were provided.

BEHAVIORAL

High-Intensity Condition

The high-intensity condition consisted of 8 hours of sitting interrupted with 2--minute, vigorous-intensity activity breaks performed at 75% of heart rate reserve (HRR) every 18 minutes. Standardized meals were provided.

BEHAVIORAL

Sedentary Condition

The sedentary condition consisted of 8 hours of sitting interrupted with 2-minutes of screen time every 18 minutes. Standardized meals were provided.
