Prospective Physical Activity, Sitting & Sleep Consortium: Pooling thigh-worn accelerometry studies to quantify how movement & posture impact adult health
University of Sydney
Joined May 2018
Vigorous activities, accrued through the day (Vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity: VILPA) holds potential as a meaningful health intervention for non-exercising individual. https://t.co/099LL5UrsI

People who do several very short bouts of strenuous activity each day are much less likely to die in the next few years than those who do no exercise at all

New study, involving 6 ProPASS partnered cohorts across Europe and Australia reveals Irregular or short sleep💤 + low steps🚶♀️is linked with:🛑higher BMI🛑greater waist circumference,🛑higher cholesterol🛑poorer cardiometabolic health. https://t.co/2TnQCh8r1u

Our findings suggest that the potential deleterious associations of irregular or insufficient sleep with cardiometabolic health outcomes may be exaggerated by lower daily PA. Investigation of the...

It's crucial to provide actionable health guidance for those who face barriers to structured exercise - New study reveals: 3.4 mins/day of vigorous lifestyle activity done in ≤3 min bursts can reduce the mortality risk from high sedentary time. See: https://t.co/uk7uHAxLYJ

That's a wrap! 🎬 Another special, successful @ISBNPA, Auckland '25! Inspiring global research on show, including from our amazing partner studies. We shared some of the consortium's early findings with the PA-nutrition community, all made possible thanks to our partners!

ECRs are foundational to the future of physical activity epidemiology, and will shape the future of evidence generation for global health guidance 🧘♂️🚴♂️🥗 💤 Great to have many of our ECRs out sharing their work, and forging international links the PA-Nutrition community @ISBNPA !

Another inspiring day at ISBNPA, Auckland! @ISBNPA Today we shared our exciting accelerometry harmonisation work with yet another receptive audience. These studies combine in-lab assessment with free-living, to help to capture 'real, natural movement behaviour'.

What an inspiring first #keynote! Prof. James Sallis reminded us that environmental research in physical activity and nutrition can do more than promote health — it can also help address multiple global challenges. #ISBNPA2025

ISBNPA Day 1. The 24h day of movement is one crucial aspect of a healthy lifestyle. Yet, sleep and nutrition are interconnected with our daily movement. New SPAN (😴, 🏃♂️& 🍎) work by @NKoemel and the team investigates their combined importance for health & longevity.

The 'weekend warrior' 🚴♀️debate is important for future health guidance given the rise in sedentary occupations. A recent piece found no greater risk of incident diabetes amongst 'weekend warriors', relative to their consistently active peers. https://t.co/RsDkuLrQZ4

Device-measures of physical behaviour still hold immensely rich information beyond weekly averages, which our work and our partners are unveiling. Measures of 'compositional' variance may help reveal the day-to-day fluctuations of behaviour.

We present methods to characterize individual day-to-day variation in physical behaviors, either by assessing variation in one behavior in isolation or multiple behaviors simultaneously. These meth...

Daily, non-exercise specific #activity of vigorous or moderate intensity is associated with better cardiovascular health. Important news, especially for people who struggle to do structured #exercise. Thank you @M_Stamatakis for leading this study.

Collaboration - A core tenet of ProPASS following such a successful ISPAH 2024. Idea-sharing today with the UCL Healthy Weight Research Team @NIHRresearch , @blodgettjm. ProPASS partner studies are helping us quantify the importance of 24-h behaviours for all aspects of health.

Another bold leap forwards- more comprehensive movement behaviour💤👣 and sleep guidance which is more-specific and meaningful to those in the first year post-partum. 🤱🧘♀️🚶♀️👟 The change reflects the immense hard work and evidence-generation which has shaped these new guidelines.
