Supports activity promotion in overweight adults; leaves open causal CVD risk reduction pending randomized trials.
Participation in any level of physical activity is associated with a lower 10-year CVD risk for overweight and obese adults. Future studies are needed to identify effective modes and doses of exercise that offer optimal CVD benefits for populations with different weight statuses.
