Risk reduction across different fitness categories
Health benefits obvious with aerobic fitness levels above
� 28 mL/kg/min (8 METS) for older men
� 21 mL/kg/min (6 METS) for older women
There is a 13-15% reduction in risk for every 3.5 ml/kg/min (1 MET) increase in VO2max
This equates to
•1 km/h increase in maximum running speed

Genetic factors in exercise training response
60% of the variation in the response of VO2max to training can be accounted for by genetic factors
At least 58 different genes have been identified that
may influence aerobic fitness response to exercise training

Summary
� Aerobic fitness is vital for health
� The greatest benefit appears to occur when we
move individuals out of the lowest fitness
categories
� Aerobic fitness may be as important or more
important than obesity in terms of reducing risks
� High intensity interval training may be a novel
way of improving aerobic fitness

Summary
� There is considerable variation in terms of the
response to aerobic exercise training, there are
responders and non-responders, with multiple
genes involved
� There are individuals who find exercise more
difficult than their peers, with genetic factors
involved

Summary
� The use of BMI has many limitations. In particular it “hides” risks associated with low muscle mass and high levels of central obesity
� Muscle mass and muscle strength are associated with better metabolic health both in adults and children. Strength training should be encouraged for all
