目标。确定社区的身体活动水平为制定和实施旨在提高这些活动水平的计划提供了背景。因此，我们利用亚洲心血管疾病国际合作研究的数据，评估了 35 至 74 岁中国成年人代表性样本的总体、工作相关和休闲身体活动。方法。身体活跃的定义是每天参加 30 分钟或以上的中等或剧烈活动。与工作相关的身体活动和休闲时间的身体活动分别被定义为在工作或休闲时间进行身体活动，以及参加任何中等或剧烈的活动。结果：在中国农村和城市，分别有78.1%和21.8%的居民进行身体活动；分别有75.8%和16.5%的人参加了与工作相关的活动；分别有28.9%和7.9%的人参加了休闲时间的体育活动。在农村和城市环境中，年轻人、男性和南方居民比老年人、女性和北方居民更有可能进行身体活动并参与与工作相关和休闲时间的身体活动。结论。促进休闲时间和身体活动的干预策略，尤其是城市居民的休闲时间和身体活动，应被视为中国的一个主要健康优先事项。
Objectives. Determining physical activity levels in the community provides a context for the development and implementation of programs aimed at increasing these activity levels. Therefore, we assessed overall, work-related, and leisure-time physical activity in a representative sample of Chinese adults, aged 35 to 74 years, using data from the International Collaborative Study of Cardiovascular Disease in Asia.Methods. Being physically active was defined as participating in 30 or more minutes of moderate or vigorous activity daily. Work-related and leisure-time physical activities were defined as being physically active and participating in any moderate or vigorous activity at work or during leisure time, respectively.Results: In rural and urban China, 78.1% and 21.8% of residents, respectively, were physically active; 75.8% and 16.5%, respectively, participated in work-related activity; and 28.9% and 7.9%, respectively, participated in leisure-time physical activity. In both rural and urban settings, younger adults, men, and southern residents were more likely to be physically active and to participate in work-related and leisure-time physical activity than older adults, women, and northern residents.Conclusions. Intervention strategies to promote leisure-time, physical activity, especially among urban residents, should be considered a major health priority in China.
