Abstract

This report presents national and state-level age-adjusted estimates of percentages of U.S. adults aged 18-64 who met the 2008 federal guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities during leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) in 2010-2015, by sex and work status (working compared with nonworking). State variation in work status, health status and difficulty in physical functioning, and occupational distributions for men and women were also considered.
