Background. We determined associations between habitual physical activity and metabolic syndrome in elderly persons. Methods. Pedometer/accelerometers measured step count and activity intensity on a 24-hour basis in 220 free-living Japanese persons 65–84 years old throughout an entire year. At year end, participants were screened for metabolic syndrome (modified criteria of National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III [NCEP-ATP III]). Results. Most individuals 65–74 years old who took.10,000 steps/d and/or spent.30 min/d of activity.3 metabolic equivalents (METs) had 2 metabolic syndrome diagnostic markers, as did those 75–84 years old with.8000 steps/d and/or.20 min/d at.3 METs. Multivariate-adjusted logistic regression...
