几项队列研究报告了身体活动或健康状况与健康结果之间的负相关性。当健身类别建立在四分位数或五分位数的基础上达到的峰值运动能力，协会分级。虽然增加心肺适应性（CRF）的显着健康益处已被一致报道，但保护程度在研究之间存在很大差异。这种差异性可能是由于用于界定通用报告格式类别的方法不同，而且没有考虑年龄，尽管年龄对通用报告格式有很大影响。为了改善这些方法上的差异，我们提出了标准化的指导方针，年龄特定的CRF类别应被定义。(C)2017年马约医学教育和研究基金会
An inverse association between physical activity or fitness status and health outcomes has been reported by several cohort studies. When fitness categories are established in quartiles or quintiles based on the peak exercise capacity achieved, the association is graded. Although significant health benefits of increased cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) have been uniformly reported, the degree of protection has varied substantially between studies. This variability is likely due to varying methods used to define CRF categories, and not considering age, despite its strong effect on CRF. To ameliorate these methodological discrepancies, we propose standardized guidelines by which age-specific CRF categories should be defined. (C) 2017 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research
