Journal ArticleDOI
Sedentary Behavior, Exercise, and Cardiovascular Health.
TL;DR: The prognostic utility of cardiorespiratory fitness compared with obesity and the metabolic syndrome is reviewed, as well as the increase of physical activity /ET for patients with heart failure as a therapeutic strategy, and ET dosing.

Association of BMI with overall and cause-specific mortality: a population-based cohort study of 3·6 million adults in the UK.
Krishnan Bhaskaran,Isabel dos-Santos-Silva,David A. Leon,David A. Leon,Ian J. Douglas,Liam Smeeth +5 more
TL;DR: BMI was associated with all cause of death categories except for transport-related accidents, but the shape of the association varied, and the BMI associated with lowest mortality risk was higher in older individuals than in younger individuals.

Exercise benefits in cardiovascular disease: beyond attenuation of traditional risk factors
Carmen Fiuza-Luces,Alejandro Santos-Lozano,Michael J. Joyner,Pedro Carrera-Bastos,Oscar Picazo,José L. Zugaza,José L. Zugaza,Mikel Izquierdo,Luis M. Ruilope,Alejandro Lucia +9 more
TL;DR: It is argued that a holistic view of all body systems is necessary and useful when analysing the role of exercise in cardiovascular health and the benefits of regular exercise extend beyond its effect on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Promoting Physical Activity and Exercise JACC Health Promotion Series
TL;DR: The authors focus on "healthy PA" with the emphasis on the pathophysiological effects of physical inactivity and PA on the cardiovascular system, mechanistic/triggering factors, the role of preventive actions through personal, education/environment, and societal/authoritative factors, as well as factors to provide guidance for caregivers of health promotion regarding PA.

ACSM's guidelines for exercise testing and prescription
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the benefits and risks associated with physical activity and propose a general principles of exercise prescription for healthy populations with special consideration and environmental consideration, as well as a prescription for patients with chronic diseases and health conditions.

Physical Fitness and All-Cause Mortality: A Prospective Study of Healthy Men and Women
Steven N. Blair,Harold W. Kohl,Ralph S. Paffenbarger,Debra G. Clark,Kenneth H. Cooper,Larry W. Gibbons +5 more
TL;DR: Higher levels of physical fitness appear to delay all-cause mortality primarily due to lowered rates of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and lower mortality rates in higher fitness categories also were seen for cardiovascular Disease and cancer of combined sites.

Exercise capacity and mortality among men referred for exercise testing.
Jonathan Myers,Manish Prakash,Victor F. Froelicher,Dat Do,Sara L. Partington,J. Edwin Atwood +5 more
TL;DR: Exercise capacity is known to be an important prognostic factor in patients with cardiovascular disease, but it is uncertain whether it predicts mortality equally well among healthy persons and there is also uncertainty regarding the predictive power of exercise capacity relative to other clinical and exercise-test variables.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic literature search was conducted for observational cohort studies using MEDLINE (1966 to December 31, 2008) and EMBASE (1980 to December 30, 2008), which reported associations of baseline cardiorespiratory fitness with CHD events, CVD events, or all-cause mortality in healthy participants.
