What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- In this proposal, the investigators challenge the assumption that following the physical activity guidelines implies benefit for ALL adults, and that if benefit is not achieved in response to first line therapy, it will be by simply exercising more. Thus, for improving cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors, unanswered questions include: 1) To what extent, regardless of increasing exercise intensity or amount, is exercise not associated with benefit?
