Retrieve the International Physical Activity Questionnaire from this link: 
We are interested in finding out about the kinds of physical activities that people do as part of
their everyday lives. The questions will ask you about the time you spent being physically active
in the last 7 days. Please answer each question even if you do not consider yourself to be an
active person. Please think about the activities you do at work, as part of your house and yard
work, to get from place to place, and in your spare time for recreation, exercise or sport. Think
