Physical activity intensity distributions, stratified by sex for employed (manual and non-manual workers) and retired participants at age 60–64 years. Values are median (IQR) daily durations (min/day). Time spent at 1 MET (not plotted) among women was 648 (590, 720) min/day, 676 (605, 763) min/day and 691 (619, 763) min/day for non-manual workers, manual workers and retired, respectively, whilst the same estimates in men were 677 (619, 763) min/day, 662 (590, 734) min/day and 705 (634, 792) min/day. Inserts of each graph show zoomed view of intensity distribution in the MVPA (>3 METs) zone. All values have been normalised to bin size 0.25 METs.
