Physical activity substitution: An overlooked constraint on energy expenditure during exercise and physical activity interventions
Physical activity substitution has the potential to erode the increase in daily energy expenditure during prescribed exercise interventions, and to introduce marked heterogeneity in the treatment response (change in energy expenditure). Successful mitigation of physical activity substitution could potentially increase the effectiveness of physical activity interventions.
