Physical Activity Associated With HIV

Sedentary behavior, widely prevalent in developed countries is associated with a variety of diseases and with increased mortality. However, physical activity clearly demonstrates beneficial effects on several health issues, including cardiovascular and all causes of mortality. Among beneficial impacts of exercise we can identify a robust effect on cardiovascular outcomes inducing improvements in lipoproteins and body composition that are translated into reductions in risk of coronary disease, cardiac and probably stroke events, and cardiovascular deaths. In this way, aerobic exercise improves insulin sensitivity, glycemic and blood pressure control, decreasing the risk of new onset diabetes, hypertension and obesity. Besides this, a modest effect in prevention of breast, intestinal and pancreatic cancer and an increment in bone mineral density have been established.
