Summary

This study examines the effect of a video-based intensity level demonstration on self-reported physical activity in individuals aged between 40 and 75 years. Aim of the video demonstration is to achieve a better concordance of physical activity reports with accelerometer-based measurements.

Video demonstration of physical activity intensity levels

In the video demonstration, an approximately 50 year old male explains 1) light-intensity, 2) moderate-intensity, and 3) vigorous-intensity physical activity referring to differences in heart rate, breathing frequency and capability to talk normally. Simultaneously, on a treadmill he demonstrates the body signs of the three intensity levels. He gives examples and points out that there are individual differences in the intensity evaluation of comparable activities.
