Strenuous exercise may heighten thrombotic risk via platelet sensitization; small-cohort data leave open moderate exercise effects pending larger trials.
Does strenuous versus moderate exercise affect platelet function differently in healthy men and patients with stable angina?
Strenuous exercise increases platelet reactivity, potentially explaining exercise-induced cardiac events, while moderate exercise suppresses platelet function, supporting its protective cardiovascular role.
Wang et al. (1994) studied this question.
