Physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, and the primary components of blood viscosity

Article Abstract:

Research findings indicate an inverse relationship between leisure time physical activity and/or predicted maximum oxygen consumption. Data further show similar correlation with respect to plasma viscosity and hematocrit concentration in nonsmoking men.

Metabolic clustering, physical activity and fitness in nonsmoking, middle-aged men

Article Abstract:

This article examines the relationship between clustered metabolic risk factors for heart disease and diabetes, physical activity levels, and cardiorespiratory fitness in middle aged, nonsmoking men. Results indicate that increased physical activity and fitness are correlated with a reduction in risk factors such as high blood pressure and glucose intolerance.

Energy balance, bone turnover, and skeletal health in physically active individuals

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to evaluate the evidence that underlies the hypothesis that an energy deficit is instrumental in the disturbance of bone turnover that is observed in physically active individuals. The conclusion states that exercise-associated imbalances of bone remodeling are linked to an energy deficit, and they pose a serious threat to long-term health.
