Importance of Cardiorespiratory Fitness
Cardiorespiratory fitness is crucial for reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Higher levels of fitness lead to lower risks, and the relationship is dose-dependent. Individuals with an exercise tolerance of 8 metabolic equivalents or higher have significantly lower risks. Aerobic training, up to three times a week for 30 minutes per bout, has no negative effect on strength or hypertrophy in untrained individuals. There is a strong association between sitting time and increased mortality, but this association is eliminated with the addition of over 300 minutes per week of moderate to high-intensity physical activity.
