Physical inactivity is a global public health problem. Numerous
health organizations across the world recommend engaging in
physical activity (PA) to enhance health and well-being. How-
ever, the beneficial effects of increased PA and cardiorespira-
tory fitness (CRF) remain underappreciated by many clinicians
and the public at large.

He holds faculty appointments as professor of
Physiology at Wayne State University School of Medicine
and professor of Internal Medicine, Oakland University

responses to numerous occupational and leisure-time
