Vigorous intensity, compared with moderate-intensity exercise, leads to ____
a. better improvements in osteoporosis risk factors
b. better improvements in stroke risk factors
c. better improvements in coronary heart disease risk factors
d. more injuries
Answer is c. better improvements in coronary heart disease risk factors (Vigorous-intensity programs yield higher improvements in VO2max than moderate-intensity programs. And higher levels of aerobic fitness are associated with lower cardiovascular mortality, even when the duration of moderate-intensity activity is prolonged to math the energy expenditure during a shorter vigorous-intensity effort. A recent review of several clinical studies substantiated that vigorous-intensity compared with moderate-intensity exercise leads to better improvements in coronary heart disease risk factors, including aerobic endurance, blood pressure, and blood glucose control. As a result, the pendulum is again swimming toward vigorous intensity because of the added aerobic benefits, greater protection against disease, and later every expenditure that helps with weight management.)
