Physical activity and coronary heart disease risk in men: does the duration of exercise episodes predict risk?I M Lee
Department of Epidemiology, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA, USA
Circulation 102:981-6. 2000..However, it is unclear whether the duration of exercise episodes is important: Are accumulated shorter sessions as predictive of decreased risk as longer sessions if the same amount of energy is expended?..
