An essential prerequisite for the prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) is demonstration of relationships between personal characteristics and risk of manifest CHD. Some of the risk factors detected in this way may only be indicators of an early, subclinical disease, while other risk factors may have causative significance and be amenable to treatment which may prevent or postpone the disease. An example of the first type of risk factor is ECG changes, and examples of the second type are tobacco smoking, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. MORRIS et al.[12] showed that the risk of CHD was lower in London bus conductors than in bus drivers. Later, a long series of studies by Fox and HASKELL [6], KANNEL and MCNAMARA [10], KANNEL et al.[11] andCASSEL et al.[3], as well as others, showed that high physical activity was associated with lower risk for future CHD than low physical activity. The earlier studies mainly concerned occupational activity. Later studies have also investigated the importance of leisure-time activity. An important recent study into this question was performed by MORRIS et al.[13], who studied 17,000 civil servants and related their leisure-time exercise habits to subsequent CHD after adjustment for age and smoking habits. These authors did not find any CHD differences until the highest classification (frequent peak activities to a level of 7.5 kcal/min) was reached. In the studies of both KANNEL et al.[10, 11] and MORRIS et al.[12, 13], leisure-time activity was
