↵* Adjusted for age, examination year, body mass index, smoking status, hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia and parental cardiovascular disease.
↵† Unfit was defined as the least fit 20% and fit was defined as the most fit 80% based on maximal treadmill test time.
CRF, cardiorespiratory fitness; MET, metabolic equivalent; PA, physical activity.
