Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Structured exercise and physical activity are well known to not only improve physical fitness, but also alter various health parameters in a positive fashion. To yield health benefits, exercises need to meet certain characteristics e. g. specific levels of intensity or duration.To evaluate intensity levels and therefor possible improvements in physical conditioning in golf the investigators conducted this study with two groups of each 10 subjects. The groups differed in age and skill level (handicap, hcp). Each group went through a exercise session on the driving range (DR) and a 9-hole compeition round of golf. The investigators assessed spirometrical data (breath-by-breath) to evaluate energy expenditure (EE) and intensity levels of physical activity according to the ACSM guidelines.
