Study of day, month and season pedometer-determined variability of physical activity of high school pupils in the Czech Republic

Original language description

Long-term day-to-day monitoring of phys.activity (PA) has not been undertaken in adolescents. We monitored the school year-round pedometer-determined the level of PA in high school pupils in the CR. We observed the PA levels of 10 girls and 2 boys (aged16.0+-0.7 years). Each pupil wore a pedometer continuously for a year, and recorded steps/day into an activity diary. Mean daily step count was 14,727+-6,612 steps/day, and showed differences in steps/day across the days of the week, months and seasons (all with p {0.0001). The mean number of steps/day for weekdays was higher than weekend's values (p{0.0001), and was higher for days with PE lesson than for days without PE lesson (p{0.0001). The total contribution of PE class (90 minutes) to pupils' daily PA was 10.0% additional steps per PE day. This study contributes to understanding the day-to-day PA variability of adolescent pupils across the school year. Across all months and seasons, pupils achieved notably more steps on weekdays a
