 In [[questionnaires:1999|1999]] and [[questionnaires:2015|2014-16]], at age 53 and 68-70, a single, three-part question on participation in sports, vigorous leisure activities or any exercises in spare time (not including getting to and from work) in the past four weeks, was asked as part of the CAPI interview.   In [[questionnaires:1999|1999]] and [[questionnaires:2015|2014-16]], at age 53 and 68-70, a single, three-part question on participation in sports, vigorous leisure activities or any exercises in spare time (not including getting to and from work) in the past four weeks, was asked as part of the CAPI interview.  
 Cohort members reported whether or not they participated in any such activities, how many occasions in the last four weeks they had done these activities and the number of occasions on which exercise made them sweaty or out of breath. These variables were used to derive a three-category variable //(EXER99X / EXER1415X)// equivalent to similar variables on sports and recreational activity at ages 36 and 43 years. Cohort members reported whether or not they participated in any such activities, how many occasions in the last four weeks they had done these activities and the number of occasions on which exercise made them sweaty or out of breath.

-In [[questionnaires:2015|2014-16]], at age 68-70, study members were given the option to complete an additional form and wear an accelerometer for seven days.  The separate activity questionnaire included questions on typical levels of activity, frequency of various activities, past activity, falls, joints and bones.  The accelerometer, Gulf Coast Data Concepts X16-1C, was worn on the hip and was used to measured movement and impact of activity during habitual physical activity. A time sheet was also completed, so the time the monitor was not worn could be documented.  +In [[questionnaires:2015|2014-16]], at age 68-70, study members were given the option to complete an additional form and wear an accelerometer for seven days.  The separate activity questionnaire included questions on typical levels of activity, frequency of various activities, past activity, falls, joints and bones.  The accelerometer, Gulf Coast Data Concepts X16-1C, was worn on the hip and was used to measure movement and impact of activity during habitual physical activity.
