Genomic predictors of the maximal O2 uptake response to standardized exercise training programs

TLDR
These genomic predictors of the response of Vo(2max) to regular exercise provide new targets for the study of the biology of fitness and its adaptation to regular Exercise.
Abstract
Low cardiorespiratory fitness is a powerful predictor of morbidity and cardiovascular mortality. In 473 sedentary adults, all whites, from 99 families of the Health, Risk Factors, Exercise Training...

Physical Activity and the Risk of Cardio-Metabolic Disease in the Elderly: Dose Recommendations as Seen in the Nakanojo Study

TL;DR: Information on exercise recommendations for an elderly population from the Nakanojo study is reviewed, where accurate objective information on a group of 5200 independently living men and women aged 65–84 years from a small Japanese town has been obtained by continuous pedometer/accelerometer monitoring over periods of 1–5 years.

Brief Report: Effects of Low-Volume High-Intensity Interval Training in Hispanic HIV+ Women: A Nonrandomized Study.

TL;DR: Given the lack of change in CRF observed in the HIV+ group post LV-HIIT intervention, it is important to focus on variations that may occur within groups.

Neural and Genetic Bases for Human Ability Traits.

TL;DR: The authors identified four underlying ability traits within the National Institutes of Health Toolbox normative data (n = 1, 369): (1) Motor-endurance, (2) Emotional processing, (3) Executive and cognitive function, and (4) Social interaction.

Exercise and health: historical perspectives and new insights

TL;DR: In this paper, the benefits of regular physical activity/exercise have been recognized and the classic studies of Morris and Paffenbarger provided the epidemiological evidence in support of such an association.

Physical Activity And Health: A Report Of The Surgeon General

TL;DR: This report is the first report of the Surgeon General on physical activity and health, and strong evidence is shown to indicate that regular physical activity will provide clear and substantial health gains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common SNPs explain a large proportion of the heritability for human height

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the remaining heritability is due to incomplete linkage disequilibrium between causal variants and genotyped SNPs, exacerbated by causal variants having lower minor allele frequency than the SNPs explored to date.

Changes in Physical Fitness and All-Cause Mortality: A Prospective Study of Healthy and Unhealthy Men

TL;DR: Men who maintained or improved adequate physical fitness were less likely to die from all causes and from cardiovascular disease during follow-up than persistently unfit men.

Twelve type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci identified through large-scale association analysis

Benjamin F. Voight, +183 more
- 01 Jul 2010 - 
TL;DR: By combining genome-wide association data from 8,130 individuals with type 2 diabetes and 38,987 controls of European descent and following up previously unidentified meta-analysis signals, 12 new T2D association signals are identified with combined P < 5 × 10−8.
