TLDR
The greatest reductions in mortality risk were observed between the 2 lowest activity groups across levels of general and abdominal adiposity, which suggests that efforts to encourage even small increases in activity in inactive individuals may be beneficial to public health.About:

TL;DR: The Atlas confirmed that high-income and middle-income ESC member countries, where the facilities for the contemporary treatment of coronary disease were best developed, were often those in which declines in coronary mortality have been most pronounced.

TL;DR: It is proposed that physical inactivity could be considered a behavior selected by evolution for resting, and also selected to be reinforcing in life-threatening situations in which exercise would be dangerous.

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.

Effect of physical inactivity on major non-communicable diseases worldwide: an analysis of burden of disease and life expectancy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the effect of physical inactivity on these major non-communicable diseases by estimating how much disease could be averted if inactive people were to become active and to estimate gain in life expectancy at the population level.
