Physical Activity
In order to assess the relationship of physical activity to health, it will be necessary
to evaluate the complete spectrum of activity, from the lowest levels to the highest.
As part of these investigations, it will be important to untangle the separate roles
of activity and fitness upon the risk of heart attack and other disorders.
Moreover, by evaluating the total activity spectrum with standardized and valid
approaches for assessment of activity, it will be possible to reduce bias and increase
precision. This should improve our understanding of the relationship of physical activity,
overt coronary heart disease, and other conditions or diseases.
