What is the dose response relationship between PA and CVD?
1) There is an inverse, dose-response relationship between PA and CVD/HF risk.
2) “Some physical activity is better than none” and “additional benefits occur with more physical activity”.
Examples of the benefits of regular PA
- Improvement in cardiovascular and respiratory function.
- Increased maximal oxygen uptake.
- Decreased HR and BP at a given submaximal intensity.
- Decreased myocardial oxygen cost for a given absolute submaxiam intensity.
- Reduction in cardiovascular disease and risk factors.
- Reduced resting systolic/diastolic pressure
- Reduced total body fat.
- Reduced inflammation.
- Decreased morbidity and mortality
- Higher activity and/or fitness levels are associated with lower death rates from CAD.
- Higher activity and/or fitness levels are associated with lower incidence rates from CVD, stroke, type 2 diabetes, etc.
- Other benefits
- Decreased anxiety and depression.
- Improved cognitive function.
- Enhanced physical function and independent living in older individuals.
- Enhanced feelings of well-being.
- Reduced risk of falls/injury.
- Effective therapy for many chronic diseases in older adults.
*On the exam, be ready to list at least 5 benefits of regular PA.
