Understandably, because of cost and feasibility reasons, the trial mimicked only three physical activity patterns that can occur; in real life, there are infinitely more."

"Although current knowledge regarding the dose-response relation between physical activity and health remains incomplete, the study by Church et al does provide important information on the dose of physical activity to improve physical fitness, a strong predictor of chronic disease and premature mortality. This may be succinctly summarized for patients and clinicians as Even a little is good; more may be better!"
