Association Between Exercise, Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Change in Insulin

BACKGROUND: Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is an established predictor of insulin sensitivity. Whether this association persists following control for exercise is unclear. PURPOSE: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the associations between changes in exercise, CRF and insulin sensitivity. METHODS: Participants were 140 middle aged [mean (standard deviation), 52.6 (7.7) yrs], abdominally obese (WC: 110.2 (11.5) cm), inactive...
