Sex-specific moderate to vigorous physical activity quartile cut-off values categorised boys and girls separately into four graded groups representing the least (Q1) through to the most active (Q4) children.

There were no significant differences in weekday and weekend sedentary time or physical activity for Q4 boys. On weekdays Q2 and Q3 girls accumulated more sedentary time (p &amp;#60; 0.05), Q1 and Q2 girls did significantly more moderate physical activity (p &amp;#60; 0.05), and Q1&#x2013;Q3 girls engaged in more vigorous physical activity (p &amp;#60; 0.05) and more moderate to vigorous physical activity (p &amp;#60; 0.01) than at weekends.
