Design: Cross-sectional. Methods: Target population was middle-aged (40-65 years) sedentary adults with metabolic syndrome. SB, breaks in SB, standing, and PA were measured for four weeks with hip-worn accelerometers. VO2max (ml/min/kg) was measured with maximal cycle ergometry. Insulin sensitivity was determined by hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp (M-value) and fasting blood sampling (HOMA-IR, insulin). Multivariable regression was used for analyses. Results: Sixty-four participants (37 women; 58.3 [SD 6.8] years) were included. Participants spent 10.0 (1.0) h sedentary, 1.8 (0.6) h standing, and 2.7 (0.6) h in PA and took 5149 (1825) steps and 29 (8) breaks daily. In sex-, age-and accelerometer wear time-adjusted model SB, standing, steps and VO2max were associated with M-value (beta = -0.384; beta = 0.400; beta = 0.350; beta = 0.609, respectively), HOMA-IR (beta= 0.420; beta = -0.548; beta = -0.252; beta = -0.44 9), and insulin (beta = 0.433; beta = -0.541; beta = -0.252; beta = -0.453) ; all p-values < 0.05. Breaks associated only with M-value (beta = 0.277). When further adjusted for body fat %, only standing remained significantly associated with HOMA-IR (beta= -0.381) and insulin (eta= -0.366); significance was maintained even when further adjusted for SB, PA and fitness. Light and moderate-to-vigoro us PA were not associated with insulin sensitivity. Conclusions: Standing is associated with insulin sensitivity markers. The association with HOMA-IR and insulin is independent of adiposity, PA, SB and fitness. Further studies are warranted, but these findings encourage replacing sitting with standing for potential improvements in insulin sensitivity in adults at increased type 2 diabetes risk.
