Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of change in daily physical activity during an exercise intervention on health status and physical fitness. Methods: Participants were 22 obese middle-aged men (BMI: 29.1±2.8kg/m^2,54.1±11.4yr). They performed 90-min exercise sessions on a regular basis 3 days per week for 3 months. Physical activity (total energy expenditure, TEE; activity energy expenditure, AEE; and step counts) was measured using an accelerometer. Daily physical activity was defined as that which was performed outside of the exercise class. A 3-day food record was used to estimate energy intake.Results: Body weight decreased (-3.0±2.5kg, P<0.05).Vital age(VA),an index of comprehensive health status, and physical fitness age (PFA), an index of comprehensive physical fitness, significantly improved (VA :-8.7±5.5yr, PFA: -8.5±5.1yr, P<0.05).Energy intake remained unchanged during the intervention(+63.7±546.1kcal/d).Daily physical activity increased(TEE: +83.0±130.1kcal/d, AEE: +76.9±103.3kcal/d, step counts: +1789±2819 steps/d, P<0.05). Change in daily physical activity was correlated with change in VA (AEE: r=-0.52, step counts: r=-0.46, P<0.05), while change in daily physical activity did not correlate with change in PFA. Conclusion: These results suggest that changes in daily physical activity during an exercise intervention are associated with improved health status.
