Conclusions These findings provide quantitative data physical supporting activity had US a 20% physical lower CHD activity guidelines that relative stipulate risk, ik ; some 95% confidence physical interval, activity t i to is better than none and additional benefits occur with more relative risk physical activity. Engaging in the equivalent of 300 min/wk of moderate intensity Higher physical activity levels associated with modestly lower Physically activity at lower levels also had significantly lower CHD. There was a significant interaction by sex (P.0.03); 03); the association was stronger among women than men. 38
