Table 3 Mean (with SD between workers) of the isometric log-ratio (ilr) coordinates of office workers working at the office (WAO) and from home (WFH) during working and non-working days. Within the WAO and WFH groups, data are shown for normal-weight (body mass index [BMI] < 25 kg/m2) and overweight (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) workers

From: Working at the office or from home during the COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional study of temporal patterns of sitting and non-sitting among normal-weight and overweight Brazilian office workers
