Are higher exercise capacity and muscle strength in late adolescence associated with a reduced long-term risk of vascular disease and arrhythmia in young men?
Higher exercise capacity and muscle strength in late adolescence provide long-term vascular benefits that outweigh any potential increased risk of arrhythmia.
Exercise capacity and muscle strength in late adolescence are independently and jointly associated with long term risk of vascular disease and arrhythmia. The health benefit of lower risk of vascular events with higher exercise capacity was not outweighed by higher risk of arrhythmia.
