25. Figures for walking are not comparable with those reported in previous years An adjustment has been made to account for the fact that slower walking can require as much exertion for older adults as brisk walking does for younger ones. For adults aged 65 or above, all walking was included in the MVPA calculations if the respondent reported that the walking exerted them.
