Physical inactivity leads to physiologic maladaptations that increase the risk of cardiometabolic abnormalities and death.
The association between physical activity and health has been recognized since antiquity. Yet daily physical activity in modern societies, especially for the last 100 years, has declined greatly. Additionally, people tend to become less physically active as they age. This is unfortunate because of the known link between physical activity and health. Physical inactivity can lead to many physiologic maladaptations that can increase the risk of cardiometabolic abnormalities and death. This manuscript reviews the influence of physical activity on cardiometabolic health and mortality.
