Abstract

Physical inactivity and prolonged sedentary time (ST) are independent risk factors for a range of chronic diseases. In a university environment, employees often spend prolonged periods of time being sedentary, and opportunities for physical activity (PA) may be restricted. Promoting PA and reducing ST in males can be particularly challenging, and male-specific interventions are limited
