Abstract

Physical fitness is one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) and all-cause morbidity and mortality (1). Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), and more recently muscular strength (MusS), have been increasingly recognized in the pathogenesis and prevention of chronic diseases (1).
