人们对南亚印度移民(SAI)的身体活动行为知之甚少，尽管他们患心血管疾病和糖尿病的风险是白人的两倍多。这是一项面对面的横断面描述性调查设计，比较了男性和女性在休闲时间(LTPA)、家务(HPA)和职业性体力活动(OPA)方面的差异。参与者还佩戴了Lifecorder EX(NL2200)加速度计7天。刚刚超过一半(51.8%)的参与者通过LTPA达到了推荐的PA指南(150分钟中等强度或75分钟剧烈强度)。日均步数为6,904.3步，属“低活跃度”类别。在SAI中增加PA的生活方式很重要；PA干预需要吸引性别和文化，并带有有氧成分。
Little is known of the physical activity behavior of South Asian Indian immigrants (SAIs), though they have more than twice the risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes than Whites. This was a cross-sectional descriptive face-to-face survey design, comparing between men and women in leisure time (LTPA), household (HPA), and occupational physical activity (OPA). Participants also wore a Lifecorder EX (NL2200) accelerometer for 7 days. Just over half (51.8 %) of the participants met the recommended PA guidelines (a parts per thousand yen150 min moderate-intensity or a parts per thousand yen75 min vigorous-intensity) through LTPA. The average number of daily steps was 6,904.3, which is in the "low active" classification. Increasing lifestyle PA among SAIs is important; PA interventions appealing to gender and culture and with an aerobic component are needed.
