Wojtek Chodzko-Zajko,David N. Proctor,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh,Christopher T. Minson,Claudio R. Nigg,George J. Salem,James S. Skinner +6 more
TL;DR: The evidence reviewed in this Position Stand is generally consistent with prior American College of Sports Medicine statements on the types and amounts of physical activity recommended for older adults as well as the recently published 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Endurance Training on Parameters of Aerobic Fitness
Andrew M. Jones,Helen Carter +1 more
TL;DR: The importance of improvements in the aerobic fitness parameters to the enhancement of endurance performance is highlighted, as are the training methods that may be considered optimal for facilitating such improvements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical activity and older adults: a review of health benefits and the effectiveness of interventions
TL;DR: The evidence for a causal relationship between sedentary behaviour/physical activity programmes and cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and psycho-social health, independent living and health-related quality of life into old age is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of endurance exercise on autonomic control of heart rate.
TL;DR: Long-term endurance training significantly influences how the autonomic nervous system controls heart function, and increases parasympathetic activity and decreases sympathetic activity in the human heart at rest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise and improved insulin sensitivity in older women: evidence of the enduring benefits of higher intensity training.
TL;DR: It is suggested that long-term higher intensity exercise training provides more enduring benefits to insulin action compared with moderate- or low-intensity exercise, likely due to greater transient effects.
