‘Weekend Warriors’ Have Lower Risk for All-Cause Death


Exercising in “weekend warrior” mode for just one or two sessions a week lowers the risk for all-cause mortality and death from cardiovascular disease (CVD) or cancer compared with no exercise, according to results of a study published online January 9 in JAMA Internal Medicine.
The minimal weekly level of leisure time exercise for those aged 18 to 64 years, according to the World Health Organization, is 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity. Such activity, spread over several days during the week, is known to reduce the risk for CVD, cancer, and all-cause mortality.
