About

Physical inactivity is the leading cause of preventable death in developed countries, ahead of smoking. It is responsible for 5.3 million (9%) of the 57 million deaths worldwide in 2008 and 10% of deaths in Europe.

Encouraging regular physical activity in the general population is a public health priority.

Cardiorespiratory capacity, measured during an exercise test, expressed as maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) or Metabolic Equivalent Task (MET) = oxygen consumption at rest [3.5 ml/kg/min], is an excellent indicator of individual exercise capacity and is increased by regular physical activity (PA).

Any gain in cardiorespiratory capacity of 1 MET is accompanied by a 12% reduction in mortality whether the subjects are free of any cardiovascular pathology or have a chronic pathology, regardless of their age.

As physical activity is an integral part of the management of many diseases, it seems essential to evaluate specific protocols oriented towards the maintenance or development of strength or endurance, or even mixed protocols.

The PAPS 53 (Physical Activity and Health Pathway), set up in Mayenne, responds to the demand for prescription of adapted physical activity. It is a 3-month program with 2 one-hour sports sessions per week (30 minutes of endurance and 30 minutes of muscle strengthening).

The National Sport and Health Strategy 2019-2024 expert group recommends better defining the characteristics of physical activity (intensity, frequency, etc.) to determine the effect (dose-response) on different at-risk populations and according to the type of pathology.

Investigators proposed to study by comparison the VO2 max values obtained during the two exercise tests (at inclusion and after 3 months of physical activity program). The hypothesis is that, after completion of the PAPS program, the VO2 max value of a patient will be significantly increased.

The control group is represented by the patients who have not yet followed the adapted physical activity program. The intervention group is therefore composed of the same patients. The aim is to compare the same group of eligible patients, before and after having followed the "PAPS 53" protocol
