Physical Activity, Sedentary Time, and Cardiovascular Disease Biomarkers at Age 60 to 64 Years
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018 Background We examined associations of objectively measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary time with cardiovascular disease biomarkers at age 60 to 64 years. This included investigation of sex differences and the extent to which associations may be

Intensity Paradox—Low-Fit People Are Physically Most Active in Terms of Their Fitness
Sensors, 2021 Depending on their cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), people may perceive the exertion of incident physical activity (PA) differently. Therefore, the use of relative intensity thresholds based on individual fitness have been proposed to evaluate the ...
