Abstract

Objective: This study sought to ascertain the energy expenditure (EE) associated with different sedentary and physically active free-play activities in primary school-aged children. Methods: Twenty-eight children (13 boys; 11.4±0.3 years; 1.45±0.09 m; 20.0±4.7 kg∙m-2) from one primary school in Nort...
