Association of Occupational and Leisure-Time Physical Activity with Aerobic Capacity in a Working Population

摘要

IntroductionObjective data on the association of maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) with work related physical activity are sparse. Thus, it is not clear whether occupational physical activity (OPA) contributes to an increase of VO2max. This study examined the association of VO2max with work and non-work related physical activity in a Swiss working population.
