Abstract
BackgroundDespite well-established associations between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and long-term cardiovascular disease risk, CRF remains underused in clinical practice. With a growing emphasis on longer-term risk, developments to UK cardiovascular disease risk equations such as the Joint Briti...
