    Sport and Exercise Science Sports Studies, Faculty of Business and Management, University of Ulster, United Kingdom
    Med Sci Sports Exerc 33:270-4. 2001
    ..The purpose of this study was to examine the independence and relative strengths of association between coronary heart disease (CHD) risk status and both body fatness and cardiorespiratory (C-R) fitness in 12- and 15-yr-old adolescents...

    C A Boreham
    Sports Studies, University of Ulster at Jordanstown, Jordanstown, Country Antrim, BT37 OQB, United Kingdom
    Prev Med 30:277-81. 2000
    ..The health and fitness benefits associated with short, intermittent bouts of exercise accumulated throughout the day have been seldom investigated. Stair climbing provides an ideal model for this purpose...
