Exercise Prescription for Health.
Blair, Steven N.
Quest, v47 n3 p338-53 Aug 1995
Data on the dose-response gradient for the relation of physical activity or physical fitness to health and function are reviewed, refuting the idea that physical activity programs are either exercise for health or for fitness and suggesting that the key factor is the total energy expenditure of the activity.
