Journal Article
Effects of the Amount and Intensity of Exercise on Plasma Lipoproteins
2002
Overview
Regular exercise has well-established health benefits, some of which are mediated through changes in plasma lipoproteins. This study investigated the relative importance of the amount and the intensity of regular exercise in producing changes in plasma lipoproteins. The amount of exercise per week proved to have a greater effect on lipoproteins than did the intensity of exercise.
The amount of exercise had a greater effect on lipoproteins than the intensity of exercise.
Increased physical activity and fitness are clearly associated with reductions in the risk of cardiovascular disease,

but the optimal intensity or amount of exercise necessary for reductions in risk or risk factors is unknown. Because of apparently conflicting information,

there is confusion about what recommendations to make for exercise that will confer specific health benefits. In spite of the importance of this issue, there have been no prospective studies investigating the effects of different amounts and intensities of exercise.
Although regular exercise is known to decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease, comprehensive reviews
