This week on Fitness Rocks I will discuss a recent study in the Archives of Internal Medicine looking at the relationship between the amount of exercise a person does and their quality of life. The results will make you feel good.  This week on Fitness Rocks we review an article from the January 26, 2009 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine that investigated the optimal exercise program for reducing age-related chronic diseases and physical disability. Is your exercise routine as good as it can be? In this episode of Fitness Rocks I interview Dr. Rob Van Dam, an Assistant Professor at the Harvard School of Public Health, about his recent paper in the British Medical Journal. Dr. Van Dam and his colleagues report on lifestyle data collected on over 80,000 nurses for a 24 year period. This week I talk to Dr. Rachel Wildman about her recent article in the Archives of Internal Medicine reporting the research work of her and her colleagues into the relationship between obesity and cardiometabolic risk factors. Some normal-weight people have a lot of cardiometabolic risk factors and some obese people don’t have a lot of cardiometabolic risk factors. One of the things that stands out in her research is the role of exercise. |
