How Does Occupational Lifting Affect Ambulatory Blood Pressure, Relative Aerobic Workload and Level of Physical Activity?

by Admin1 | Mar 11, 2023

Introduction Occupational physical activity (OPA), including occupational lifting (OL), seems to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Knowledge about the association between OL and risk of CVD is sparse, but repeated OL is assumed to result in prolonged...

Intensity of occupational physical activity in blue-collar workers: do self-reported rating and device-worn measurements agree?

by Admin1 | Mar 10, 2022

Purpose High intensity occupational physical activity (OPA) seem to aggravate health and increase risk of sick leave and early retirement. Most intensity of OPA monitoring has been self-reported, e.g. by rating of perceived exertion (RPE). However, no studies have...

Heart rate during work and heart rate variability during the following night: a day-by-day investigation on the physical activity paradox among blue-collar workers

by Admin1 | Apr 30, 2021

Objectives: Contrary to leisure-time physical activity, occupational physical activity (OPA) may have harmful health effects, called the physical activity paradox. A proposed mechanism is that OPA can elevate the heart rate (HR) for several hours per day. We aimed to...

Cardiorespiratory fitness, occupational aerobic workload and age: workplace measurements among blue-collar workers

by Admin1 | Nov 8, 2020

Background The knowledge, from laboratory studies dating back to the 1950s on the importance of the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and aerobic workload for workers health, is fundamental for promoting sustainable healthy employability among ageing...

Associations between occupational relative aerobic workload and resting blood pressure among different age groups: a cross-sectional analysis in the DPhacto study

by Admin1 | Sep 24, 2019

Objective High levels of occupational physical activity (OPA) increase heart rate, blood pressure (BP) and the risk of hypertension. Older workers may be more vulnerable to high levels of OPA due to age-related degeneration of the cardiovascular system and...
