The purpose of this Position Stand is to provide guidance professionals who counsel and prescribe individualized exercise apparently healthy adults all ages. These recommendations also may apply with certain chronic diseases or disabilities, when appropriately evaluated advised by a health professional. This document supersedes the 1998 American College Sports Medicine (ACSM) Stand, "The Recommended Quantity Quality Exercise for Developing Maintaining Cardiorespiratory Muscular Fitness,...
Although gastric bypass surgery accounts for 80% of bariatric in the United States, only limited long-term data are available on mortality among patients who have undergone this procedure as compared with severely obese persons from a general population.
Extreme obesity is associated with health and cardiovascular disease risks. Although gastric bypass surgery induces rapid weight loss ameliorates many of these risks in the short term, long-term outcomes are uncertain.To examine association Roux-en-Y (RYGB) loss, diabetes mellitus, other 6 years after surgery.A prospective Utah-based study conducted between July 2000 June 2011 1156 severely obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 35) participants aged 18 to 72 (82% women; mean BMI, 45.9; 95% CI,...
Although levels of physical activity and aerobic capacity decline with age the prevalence obesity tends to increase age, independent joint associations among fitness, adiposity, mortality in older adults have not been adequately examined.To determine association cardiorespiratory fitness ("fitness"), adults.Cohort 2603 aged 60 years or (mean 64.4 [SD, 4.8] years; 19.8% women) enrolled Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study who completed a baseline health examination during 1979-2001. Fitness was...
Background— Few studies have reported the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and metabolic syndrome incidence, particularly in women. Methods Results— We prospectively studied 9007 men (mean±SD age, 44±9 years; body mass index, 25±3 kg/m 2 ) 1491 women (age, 22±2 who were free of for whom measures waist girth, resting blood pressure, fasting lipids, glucose taken during baseline follow-up examinations. Baseline was quantified as duration a maximal treadmill test. Metabolic...
Background: Questions remain as to whether higher levels of cardiorespiratory fitness, a measure regular physical activity, are associated with lower risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in overweight and obese individuals diabetes.Our objective was quantify the independent joint relations fitness (hereafter, fitness) body mass index (BMI; calculated weight kilograms divided by square height meters) CVD men diabetes.Methods: This study conducted using prospective observational data...
Purpose: To examine the association between muscular strength and incidence of metabolic syndrome. Methods: Participants were 3233 men (20–80 yr) initially free syndrome who had two or more clinical examinations 1980 2003, including baseline cardiorespiratory fitness assessment. Metabolic was defined according to NCEP-ATP III criteria. Muscular quantified by combining body weight-adjusted one-repetition maximal measures for leg bench presses. Cardiorespiratory assessed treadmill test....
Coronary artery calcium (CAC), a measure of subclinical coronary heart disease (CHD), may be useful in identifying asymptomatic persons at risk CHD events. The current study included 10,746 adults who were 22–96 years age, free known CHD, and had their CAC quantified by electron-beam tomography baseline as part preventive medical examination the Cooper Clinic (Dallas, Texas) during 1995–2000. During mean follow-up 3.5 years, 81 hard events (CHD death, nonfatal myocardial infarction) 287...
Background: Evidence that higher sedentary time is associated with risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) based mainly on self-reported measures. Few studies have examined whether patterns of are CVD. Methods: Women from the OPACH Study (Objective Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Health; n=5638, aged 63–97 years, mean age 79±7 years) no history myocardial infarction or stroke wore accelerometers 4 to 7 days were followed up 4.9 years CVD events. Average daily bout duration exposures...
Lifetime risk of heart failure has been estimated to range from 20% 46% in diverse sex and race groups. However, lifetime estimates for the 2 HF phenotypes, with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) reduced (HFrEF), are not known.Participant-level data large prospective cohort studies, CHS (Cardiovascular Health Study) MESA (Multiethnic Study Atherosclerosis), were pooled, excluding individuals prevalent at baseline. Remaining HFpEF (EF ≥45%) HFrEF <45%) determined different index ages use a...

Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 36, No. 8, pp. 1301–1307, 2004. Purpose: To examine the associations for muscular strength cardiorespiratory fitness prevalence metabolic syndrome among men. Methods: Participants were 8570 men (20–75 yr) whom an age-specific score was computed by combining body weight...
Data from the 1999-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used to describe distribution of cardiorespiratory fitness its association with obesity leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) for adults 20-49 years age without limitations or indications cardiovascular disease. A sample 7,437 aged examined at a mobile examination center. Of 4,860 eligible submaximal treadmill test, 3,250 completed test included in analysis. The mean maximal oxygen uptake ( max) was estimated as...
Background — Elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) is associated with increased coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. Cardiorespiratory fitness (“fitness”) related lower CHD risk; however, its relationship CRP relatively unknown. Methods and Results Cross-sectional associations between plasma were examined among 135 African American (AA), Native (NA), Caucasian (CA) women (55±11 year; 28±6 kg/m 2 ). Fitness was assessed a maximal treadmill exercise test. Plasma concentrations determined the Dade...
The authors examined the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and incident hypertension in women who were normotensive free of cardiovascular disease at baseline Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study (Dallas, Texas), 1970–1998. A total 4,884 performed a maximal treadmill exercise test completed follow-up health survey. During an average 5 years, 157 cases self-reported, physician-diagnosed identified from surveys. cumulative incidence was 3.2%. Compared with rates low-fit women, crude...
Prospective data relating cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) with nonfatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) events are limited to studies in men or of combined fatal and CVD endpoints. The authors examined the association between CRF 20,728 5,909 women without at baseline. All participants performed a maximal treadmill exercise test completed follow-up health survey Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study (Dallas, Texas) 1971 2004. There were 1,512 159 during an average 10 years. Across incremental...
Accumulating evidence suggests that increased visit-to-visit variability (VVV) of blood pressure is associated with stroke. No study has examined the association between VVV and stroke in postmenopausal women, scarce data exist as to whether this relation independent temporal trend pressure. We 58228 women enrolled Women's Health Initiative. Duplicate readings, which were averaged, taken at baseline each annual visit. was defined SD for participant's mean systolic (SBP) across visits (SD)...
