Moderate levels of physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with a dose-response reduction in the incidence of chronic cardiometabolic diseases.
An inverse association between cardiorespiratory fitness and the incidence of chronic disease has been established by large, well-designed epidemiologic studies. Collectively, the findings support that these health benefits are realized at relatively moderate levels of exercise or physical activity and increase in a dose-response fashion. This supports the concept that physical activity should be promoted by health care professional for optimal health. This review is focused on the influence of physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness on the incidence of cardiometabolic risk factors and diseases.

Kokkinos et al. (2018) conducted a review in Chronic disease and cardiometabolic risk factors. Physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness was evaluated on Incidence of cardiometabolic risk factors and diseases. Cardiorespiratory fitness and moderate physical activity are inversely associated with the incidence of chronic diseases and cardiometabolic risk factors in a dose-response fashion.
