• Obesity and risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease in children and adolescents. (2003, background): “It is well known, at least from studies in adults, that regular physical activity can reduce insulin resistance, improve glucose intolerance, reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes (105, 106), and reduce cardiovascular risk (107).”
• Effects of exercise and diet on chronic disease. (2005, background): “In the Women’s Health Initiative Observational Study (239) and the Nurses’ Health Study (240), 30–40% of CAD was prevented by simply walking briskly 2.”
• Walking is popular among adults but is it pleasant? A framework for clarifying the link between walking and affect as illustrated in two studies (2008, background): “First, in conjunction with a wealth of recent evidence documenting the numerous health benefits associated with walking (e.g., Lee, Rexrode, Cook, Manson, & Buring, 2001; Manson et al., 2002; Tanasescu et al., 2002), findings that walking can be pleasant should start to put the ‘‘no pain, no gain’’ ”
• Physical activity and public health in older adults: recommendation from the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association. (2007, background): “For example, lower risks of cardiovascular disease have been observed with just 45–75 min of walking per week (40).”
• The metabolic syndrome. (2003, positive): “The total amount of physical activity and more intense activity shows the strongest reductions in CHD risk in both women and men [51, 52].”
• Sitting time and mortality from all causes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. (2009, background): “64) during 6 yr of follow-up compared with women who spent less than 4 hId sitting; however, other durations of sitting were not associated with CVD risk (20).”
• Physical activity and public health: updated recommendation for adults from the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association. (2007, background): “These studies include the College Alumni Health Study (48), the Health Professionals’ Follow-up Study (67), the Nurses’ Health Study (41), the Women’s Health Initiative (40), and the Women’s Health Study (37).”
• Physical activity and older adults: a review of health benefits and the effectiveness of interventions (2004, background): “By protecting the endothelium, physical activity could therefore be responsible for the beneficial effect of exercise and the decreased risk of cardiovascular disease demonstrated in older people that walk further than 1.5 miles per day (Hakin et al., 1999) and at a brisk pace (Manson et al., 2002).”
