    Abstract

    Previous studies have shown that physical activity (PA) levels and sitting time (SIT) independently contribute to chronic disease morbidity and mortality risk. Little work, however, has focused on PA and SIT for promotion of positive health outcomes (versus disease prevention). The purpose of this study was to determine associations between the exposures of moderate-to-vigorous PA and SIT and outcomes of excellent health (ExH) and excellent quality of life (ExQoL) in Australian middle-aged and older adults.
