Physical activity is known to play a role in the prevention of obesity and related cardiometabolic conditions. However, in order to develop targeted public health interventions, it is first necessary to understand how levels of physical activity vary in different populations, along with the determinants of physical activity and its association with intermediate disease traits. This thesis presents the results of descriptive studies of physical activity in three population cohorts: the UK-based National Diet and Nutrition Survey, the Cambridgeshire-based Fenland Study, and the Russian-based Know Your Heart Study, along with an ecological analysis of 35 population estimates of physical activity energy expenditure from populations as diverse as Arctic Inuit to the Maasai of Kenya. In summary, the analysis shows that physical varies by age, sex, BMI and location.
