Walking is a rhythmic, dynamic, aerobic activity of large skeletal muscles that confers the
multifarious benefits of this with minimal adverse effects. Walking, faster than customary, and …

Endurance trained people exhibit low levels of postprandial lipemia. However, this favorable
situation is rapidly reversed with de-training and it is likely that the triglyceride (TG) lowering …

BACKGROUND: The aim was to develop a standardised and externally paced field walking
test, incorporating an incremental and progressive structure, to assess functional capacity in …

Evidence is accumulating that high levels of physical activity are associated with a reduced
risk of some cancers. This evidence is most consistent for colon cancer, which is reduced by …

Physical Activity and Health explains clearly, systematically and in detail the relationships
between physical activity, health and disease, and examines the benefits of exercise in the …

PURPOSE: To compare the effects of different patterns of regular brisk walking on fitness,
risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and psychological well-being in previously sedentary …

Design. This was a 10-wk intervention study. Previously sedentary women were randomly
allocated to a brisk walking group or to a control group after baseline tests were completed …

One mechanism by which prior exercise decreases the plasma triacylglycerol (TG) response
to dietary fat may involve enhanced clearance of TG-rich lipoproteins. The purpose of the …

Repeated episodes of exaggerated postprandial lipemia may hasten the progression of
atherosclerosis. The purpose of this study was to compare the lipemic response to a high-fat …

Background: The mitigating effect of exercise on postprandial lipemia may be attributable to
the energy deficit incurred. Objective: We aimed to compare the effects of prior exercise and …
