Methods: ). The independent variables were physical activity (PA, IPAQ), screen time (ST), sleep (bedtime, wake-up time). Compliance was calculated for each behavior and combinations. Multiple linear regression models were employed. Results: , and negative associations between adherence to two guidelines and BMI. Boys exhibited a negative association between PA and body fat, positive between ST and HGS, and positive/negative between combined PA + ST adherence and HGS/body fat. Moreover, adherence to all three guidelines associated positively with HGS. Conclusion: Adhering to 24-h movement guidelines, alone or in combination, benefits muscular strength and cardiorespiratory fitness in Brazilian adolescents. However, simultaneous adherence did not correlate with obesity indicators.
