Measured. height and weight data were used to calculate BMI and classify adults by overweight status (BMI >= 25). Self-reported physical activity data were used to classify adults into those who achieved >= 5 bouts of weekly moderate-vigorous physical activity and those who did not. Results were stratified by overweight and physical activity, status.Results: The vast majority of young adults used car transit (work, 90.4%; school, 74.7%).
