Scottish Physical Activity Questionnaire

The following questions relate to your physical activity over previous week. Please mark in the appropriate bow the number on minutes spent doing a particular activity. Please try and think carefully and be as accurate as possible with you answers. Only include activities of either moderate or vigourous activity. Examples are given of what should and should not be included.		LIGHT INTENSITY - Your heart rate and breathing rate are no different from what they are when you are standing, sitting etc.
		MODERATE INTENSITY - Your heart rate and breathing are faster than normal. You may also sweat a little. Brisk walking or sweeping and mopping are good examples of how you might feel
		VIGOUROUS INTENSITY - Your h.eart rate is much faster and you have to breathe deeper and faster than normal. You will probably swear. Playing football or squash are good examples of how you might feel.
