TL;DR: Physical activity is beneficial to health with or without weight loss, but adults who find it difficult to maintain a normal weight should probably be encouraged to reduce energy intake and minimize time spent in sedentary behaviours to prevent further weight gain.

TL;DR: The studies contributing most information to outcomes of weight and body mass index (BMI) were from studies at a low risk of bias, but studies with a highrisk of bias provided data on adverse events and quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of walking on fitness, fatness and resting blood pressure: A meta-analysis of randomised, controlled trials
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that healthy but sedentary individuals who take up a programme of regular brisk walking improves several known risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulating brisk walking for fitness, cardiovascular risk, and psychological health.
TL;DR: It is suggested that three short bouts (10 min) of brisk walking accumulated throughout the day are at least as effective as one continuous bout of equal total duration in reducing cardiovascular risk and improving aspects of mood in previously sedentary individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long distance transportation of steers to slaughter: effect of stocking density on physiology, behaviour and carcass quality
TL;DR: The results show that stocking densities above about 550 kg/m2 are unacceptable for animals in this weight range on long journeys, and physiological data suggest that any increase in journey time or deterioration in transport conditions would be detrimental to welfare.
