Fitness and fatness as predictors of mortality from all causes and from
cardiovascular disease in men and women in the lipid research clinics
study.

Stevens J, Cai J, Evenson KR, Thomas R.
Department of Nutrition, School of Public Health, University of North
Carolina, Chapel Hill 27599, USA. June_Stevens@unc.edu

The relative size of the effects of fitness and fatness on longevity has
been studied in only one cohort. The authors examined this issue using data
from 2,506 women and 2,860 men in the Lipid Research Clinics Study. The
mean age was 46.6 years in women and 45.1 years in men at baseline
(1972-1976). Fitness was assessed using a treadmill test, and fatness was
assessed as body mass index calculated from measured height and weight.
Participants were followed for vital status through 1998. Hazard ratios
were calculated using proportional hazard models that included covariates
for age, education, smoking, alcohol intake, and the dietary Keys score.
Fitness and fatness were both associated with mortality from all causes and
from cardiovascular disease. For mortality from all causes, the adjusted
hazard ratios were 1.32 among the fit-fat, 1.30 among the unfit-not fat,
and 1.57 among the unfit-fat women compared with fit-not fat women. Among
men the same hazard ratios were 1.25, 1.44, and 1.49 [corrected]. There
were no significant interactions between fitness and fatness in either men
or women. The authors conclude that both fitness and fatness are risk
factors for mortality, and that being fit does not completely reverse the
increased risk associated with excess adiposity.

Study: Moderate Exercise Cuts Stroke Risk
NEW YORK, Feb. 22, 2008

(AP) Being merely moderately fit - walking briskly half an hour a day -
can lower the risk of having a stroke, according to a new study whose
findings apply to women as well as men.

Much of the previous research on stroke and fitness has been on men and
relied on participants to report their physical activity, said Steven
Hooker, who heads the University of South Carolina's Prevention Research
Center in Columbia and led the study. About a quarter of those in the new
study were women, and everyone had a treadmill test to measure his or her
fitness level.

"It seems that benefits we've been observing in men for many years ... are
also observed in women," Hooker said.

He said even those who were moderately fit had a lower risk of stroke.
Most people can reach that fitness range by walking briskly for 30 minutes
a day, five times a week, said Hooker, who presented the findings Thursday
at the International Stroke Conference in New Orleans.

Stroke is the nation's third-leading cause of death. It occurswhen blood
flow to the brain is stopped when a blood vessel is blocked by a clot or
bursts. Hooker said physical activity can help prevent blood clots and the
buildup of artery-clogging plaque.

For their research, Hooker and his colleagues used data from a study of
more than 61,000 adults at the Cooper Aerobics Center in Dallas. After
taking a treadmill test, the participants periodically answered health
surveys. The latest research divided the group into four levels of fitness
and looked at how many of them had strokes, following them an average of
18 years.

Overall, there were 692 strokes in men and 171 in women.

The study found that men in the most fit group had a 40 percent lower risk
of stroke than the least fit men. The most fit women had a 43 percent
reduction in their risk of stroke compared with women in the least fit
group.

For moderate levels of fitness, the risk reduction ranged from 15 to 30
percent for men and 23 to 57 percent in women.

The lower risks held true even when taking into account other risk factors
for stroke such as smoking, weight, high blood pressure, diabetes and
family history.

Fitness is "a strong predictor of stroke risk all by itself," Hooker said.

The study's participants were mostly white, well-educated and
middle-income or higher; other populations should be studied, he said.
Fitness tests were only done when people entered the study so the
researchers didn't know if their fitness level changed over time.

In its stroke prevention guidelines, the American Stroke Association
recommends at least 30 minutes of physical activity of moderate intensity
on most days of the week. The new study "is certainly consistent with all
of the recommendations that we already have in place," said Dr. Larry
Goldstein, a spokesman for the group and director of the Stroke Center at
Duke University.

Walking briskly for 30 minutes 5 days a week?  Gee, I think I heard that
before, about obesity mortality rates...  I'm betting brisk walking is all
the exercise ANYONE needs to do to stay healthy and out of the danger
zones of most illness.

Stupidity, however, has no cure.  Sorry trolls, there is no help for you.

What is the risk of stroke for a person who has a BMI of over 40 (the
clinical defintion of morbid obesity) who walks briskly for 30 minutes 5
days a week relative to a person of normal BMI who does the same?  Cite
your source.

each year simply to keep a family of ugly inbred morons living in the

Obviously, the idea of mortality that is independent of BMI is unthinkable
to Kenny.  Studies exist that say flat out that mortality is corelated to
fitness, and is INDEPENDENT of BMI.  But Kenny can't wrap his brain around
that.

If there was no corelation to BMI under 40, but there was a corelation
with the BMI was above 40, wouldn't the studies say that?  Since they
don't, Kenny's brain short circuts, and smoke pours out of his ears.  The
assumption is that the study is flawed, Kenny cannot consider that his
uneducated opinion is wrong.  In his world, it's the 15 years of medical
research that is flawed.

The level of fitness chosen for this study was brisk walking for two
reasons that were not stated. First, it is easily measured because
most people can at least walk. Measuring running ability would be
impossible with 80 % of possible subjects being unable to run at all..
Second, brisk walking is an enty level of exercise and fitness-
ability. If benefit could be demonstrated with the easiest rung on the
exercise ladder then that would be good news worth promugating.
But this says nothing about the additional huge benefits obtainable
with actually being able to jog 2 or 3 miles and doing so regularly.
Like reversing diabetes and hypertension, for starters.
Also in the background is the fact that being fat makes it much harder
to stay fit and being fit makes it much harder to stay fat. So, living
as "fat but fit" is something of a lost cause over the long term in
the vast majority of cases.

Actually, that's not true.  The level of fitness was measured by having
all of the participants take a standard treadmill fitness test and then
following them for 18 years and seeing how many died from strokes.  The
conclusion was that performing poorly (as defined by being in the lowest
quartile) on a standard treadmill fitness test was an excellent
predictor for stroke victims.

At no time was "brisk walking" ever part of the experiment.  The brisk
walking bit is merely a personal belief from one of the study authors as
to what it would take to move someone out of the lowest quartile.

  He said even those who were moderately fit had a lower risk of
  stroke. Most people can reach that fitness range by walking briskly
  for 30 minutes a day, five times a week, said Hooker, who presented
  the findings Thursday at the International Stroke Conference in New
  Orleans.

Even Dr. Hooker qualifies this by saying that "most people" can reach
this level of fitness with brisk walking.

That's a great theory, but that's not how treadmill fitness tests work
at all.  Basically the tests start out slow and at a low incline and
increase both in speed and incline until the person can't continue any
longer.

Here's a table showing the popular Bruce protocol.

Time (min)
    3    6    9    12    15    18    21
Speed (mph)
    1.7    2.5    3.4    4.2    5.0    5.5    6.0
Grade (%)
    10    12    14     16    18    20    22

As you can see the test starts out a leisurely walk, but it soon speeds
up to the point where a brisk walk every day won't prepare you for the
strain.

Exactly.  The take home message is that stroke appears to be that if you
can outrun someone, you are probably less likely to die of a stroke than
they are.  The good news is that in this particular case even a little
bit of exercise appears to help a great deal.  So while you don't get
the 40% reduction of being in the top quartile without a significant
amount of work, you can get a 15% reduction just by being able to outrun
the slowest quartile.

That may very well be true.  But such instances do exist, where fat people
remained fit.  Furthermore, being skinny doesn't help all by itself, the
person must also be fit.  In other words, the fitness level of the
subjects mattered, not the BMI.

And I never said that for the vast majority of obese people, such a
situation is common.

I understand it.  I'm just opting to mock you instead.  While Doctor
Blair's study didn't deal with stroke specifically, it did mention
mortality in general.  He found no corelation to BMI, just fitness.  The
second study that I mentioned about stroke also found no corelation to
BMI, just fitness.

No place in either study does it say that there is no corelation to BMI if
BMI is under 40, but there is a corelation to BMI if BMI is over 40.
Since there is no mention of a corelation, there is no corelation.

Your requested "cites" are two medical studies that have already been
posted, and a basic statistics class.  Your continued insistance that
there is a corelation, even though one has yet to be found, is very
telling, somewhat disturbing, but very funny.

I'm sure you will now bitch, moan, and complain, just like you always
do...

There was no data presented fpr people with BMI's exceeding 40 to support a
corelation, or lack thereof, dumbass.  There was also no data in the
studies stating that people who play Russian Roulette every weekend have a
higher mortality rate than those who have never played.

You get the idea.

In other words, not everyone is attracted to the same people as you are.
I'm even sure some people who like skinny women won't think all the ones
you like are attractive.  Some people like Sarah Jessica Parker, others
think she is ugly.  I think she's an ugly dude in a dress...

For the most part most of the people pictured are very average looking
and in real life none of them would draw much attention either way.

Kenny just doesn't have anything of substance to come back with so he
makes it up as he goes along in the hopes that his troll buddies will
be stupid enough to join in.

I also suspect that he makes fun of the people in those pics out of
jealousy simply because he has most likely never been invited to any

Sure, there are men who are attracted to obese women, but only because they
are losers who haven't got a hope in hell of attracting a normal sized woman.

Blair study.  No corelation to BMI.

Now, prove that there is a corelation for those above 40, stupid Kenny.
No corelation means no corelation.  That's my proof.  Now, prove me wrong.

Doctor Blair's study said there is no corleation to BMI.

No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.
No corelation means no corelation.

Understand yet, stupid kenny?  Ask your parents for a dictionary.

Here's the part that you keep snipping out from every reply that
demonstrates your snip and run cowardice:

Where did I say there was a corelation?  You implied such when you wrote
this:

"I may be fat, but I CAN walk briskly for 30 minutes...  According to the
study, my risk of mortality is the same as a skinny person who can do the
same 30 minute brisk walk."

**end quote**

Unless you want to deny it right now, your BMI is over 40.  You have
admitted that 3X shirts are getting tight on you.  Without supporting data,
how did you come up with this conclusion?  Morbid Obesity (BMI 40+) is a
unique class that the studies did not provide data for.

This coming from someone who describes this method of measuring BMI:

"f the weight it too high, they measure various parts of the person's body
to figure out BMI."

**end quote**

Snip and run cowardice is not victory.

How can obese people "walk briskly"? I've never seen one do it yet.

Look at that. The one, the only, the original, the stupid Naughty Boy is
back. Who said Usenet couldn't go further downhill?
