Paper

Abstract

A physical activity paradox is suggested by recent evidence that leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) is beneficial, whereas it may be detrimental to those with high occupational physical activity (OPA) levels. We aimed to investigate the association of domain-specific PA on the age of the whole body and organs (heart, kidneys, and liver).

Research summary

The paper investigates the association between domain-specific physical activity and biological aging. This research is relevant as it explores how different types of physical activity may influence biological aging processes, which is a key aspect of longevity research.
