Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Twin and family studies that estimated the heritability of daily physical activity have been limited by poor measurement quality and a small sample size. OBJECTIVE: We examined the heritability of daily physical activity and sedentary behavior assessed objectively by using combined heart rate and movement sensing in a large twin study. DESIGN: Physical activity traits were assessed in daily life for a...
