*Any physical activity done for 20 or more minutes, 3 or more times per week during the
past month, but less than 50 percent of functional capacity.
The symbol -- means cell size less than 50. The symbol - means cell size less than 5.
N = Cell Size, % = Percentage, 95% C.I. = Confidence Interval at 95 percent probability level.
Percentages are weighted to population characteristics.
