Impact of Cardio Respiratory Fitness on Risk of Death and Cardiovascular Disease
Categorizing people based on their cardio respiratory fitness and monitoring them for 7-10 years revealed that moving from low to average fitness level can halve the risk of death and cardiovascular disease. People in the elite category are five times less likely to die during the follow-up period compared to those with low cardio respiratory fitness. The transition from low to average fitness level can be achieved by adhering to the recommended 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise, thereby significantly reducing the risk of death and cardiovascular disease.
