Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A reduction in blood pressure is expected in both conditions that interrupt sitting time, compared to the control group. In addition, a greater reduction in blood pressure is anticipated in the moderate-intensity interruption group | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A maintenance or increase in muscle activity is expected in both conditions that interrupt sitting time, compared to the control group. Likewise, a maintenance or increase in muscle activity is anticipated in the moderate-intensity interruption group;A maintenance or increase in heart rate is expected in both conditions that interrupt sitting time, compared to the control group. Likewise, a greater maintenance or increase in heart rate is anticipated in the moderate-intensity interruption group;An increase in heart rate variability is expected in both conditions that interrupt sitting time, compared to the control group. Likewise, a greater maintenance or increase in heart rate variability is anticipated in the moderate-intensity interruption group;A maintenance or increase in mean skin temperature is expected in both conditions that interrupt sitting time, compared to the control group. Likewise, a greater maintenance or increase in skin temperature is anticipated in the moderate-intensity interruption group | — |
