Description for figure 3
Percent meeting physical activity guidelines and other thresholds according to accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and selfreported leisure-time physical activity, household population aged 12 to 79, Canada, 2007 to 2011

The title of the graph is "Figure 3 Percent meeting physical activity guidelines and other thresholds, according to accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and self-reported leisure-time physical activity, household population aged 12 to 79, Canada, 2007 to 2011 ."
This is a line chart.
There are in total 4 categories in the horizontal axis. The vertical axis starts at 0 and ends at 70 with ticks every 10 points.
There are 4 series in this graph.
The vertical axis is "percent."
The horizontal axis is "Age group."
The title of series 1 is "Meeting physical activity guidelines with MVPA."
The minimum value is 4.3 and it corresponds to "12 to 17."
The maximum value is 18.6 and it corresponds to "18 to 39."
The title of series 2 is "At least 60 MVPA minutes a day, on average, for children and 150 MVPA minutes a week, on average, for adults (all minutes of MVPA)."
The minimum value is 21.62 and it corresponds to "60 to 79."
The maximum value is 51.35 and it corresponds to "18 to 39."
The title of series 3 is "At least 60 LTPA (with exclusions) minutes a day, on average, for children and 150 LTPA (with exclusions) minutes a week, on average, for adults ."
The minimum value is 22.7 and it corresponds to "12 to 17."
The maximum value is 30.05 and it corresponds to "60 to 79."
The title of series 4 is "At least 60 LTPA (all) minutes a day, on average, for children and 150 LTPA (all) minutes a week, on average, for adults ."
The minimum value is 36.6 and it corresponds to "12 to 17."
The maximum value is 57.95 and it corresponds to "60 to 79."

60 to 79 11.33 21.62 30.05 57.95
MVPA = moderate-to-vigorous physical activity
LPTA = leisure-time physical activity
Notes: For 12- to 17-year-olds, the physical activity guideline used is 60 minutes a day on a least six out of seven days a week. For those aged 18 or older, the physical activity guideline used is 150 minutes a week, on average, accumulated in bouts of a least 10 minutes. Excluded activities are swimming, cycling, weight training and fishing.
