Questions and instructions

Question pretext

Now I would like to review the different functions of your body. When answering these questions, I would like you to think about the last 30 days, taking both good and bad days into account. When I ask about difficulty, I would like you to consider how much difficulty you have had, on average, in the last 30 days, while doing the activity in the way that you usually do it. Let me remind you, by difficulty I mean requiring increased effort, discomfort or pain, slowness or changes in the way you do the activity.

Literal question

Overall in the last 30 days, how much difficulty did you have n vigorous activities ('vigorous activities' require hard physical effort and cause large increases in breathing or heart rate)?
