Variability in the response of HDL cholesterol to exercise training in the HERITAGE Family Study.

TL;DR: In the HERITAGE Family Study, 675 sedentary, healthy, white and black men and women, aged 17 to 65 years, performed 20 weeks of supervised cycle ergometer exercise at the same relative intensity and weekly volume with marked variability in HDL-C response to the same endurance exercise training stimulus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Childhood obesity: are genetic differences involved?

TL;DR: This brief review focuses on the genetic contribution to childhood obesity, and suggests that the prevalence of childhood obesity is increasing across generations as a result of positive assortative mating with obese husbands and wives contributing more obese offspring than normal-weight parents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of high-intensity exercise on energy expenditure, lipid oxidation and body fatness.

TL;DR: It is suggested that high-intensity exercise favors a lesser body fat deposition which might be related to an increase in post-exercise energy metabolism that is mediated by β-adrenergic stimulation.
