Compare the sedentary guidelines for ‘Children and young people’ and ‘adults’
Both age groups are asked to break up long periods of sitting. Adults are also asked to reduce time spent sitting while it is recommended that children and young people limit their screen time to less than 2 hours per day.
Can the same factor be an enabler for one person and a barrier for another? Explain and provide an example
Yes. For example, being overweight might prevent one person from being active because they are too embarrassed to be active in public, whereas being overweight may motivate someone else to be active so they can lose weight.

Physical activity guidelines for children aged 5 to 17 years using the FITT principle.
F – every day
I – moderate to vigorous

What are two benefits of using a accelerometer rather than a recall instrument to measure PA for a child under 10?
It is a good alternative to self-reporting physical activity by children because children under 10 cannot accurately recall their behaviour.
Can assess physical activity that is difficult to capture (e.g. children's physical activity, incidental/light-intensity physical activity and sedentary time)
Physical activity may be classes as structured or incidental, using examples, contrast structured and incidental physical activity.
Structured physical activity is activity that is planned such as meeting a friend for a walk or attending a gym session. Incidental physical activity is activity that occurs as part of your daily activities such as walking around the shops or vacuuming.
Individual factors impacting on an individual's ability to do physical activity?
What are the four categories of incidental activity?
Play, Household/gardening, active transport, occupational activity
Physical activity guidelines for adults aged 18 to 64 years using the FITT principle.
F – most preferably all day
I – moderate to vigorous
T – 2.5 – 5 hrs moderate/1.25 – 2.5 vigorous
T – Include muscle and bone strengthening on 2 days
Define sedentary behaviour and provide three examples
