Physical Activity, Exercise, and Health: Bridging Research and Clinical Practice

Dear Colleagues,

The relationship between physical activity, exercise, and health has been extensively studied, demonstrating significant benefits across various domains of health and disease prevention. Evidence supports that regular physical activity improves cardiovascular health, enhances metabolic function, and reduces the risk of chronic diseases, e.g., diabetes and cancer. In recent decades, research has expanded to explore the role of exercise in clinical settings. This Special Issue aims to bridge the gap between research and clinical practice and explore the intersection of how physical activity, exercise, and health research can be applied to real-world clinical practice. By highlighting translational research, we seek to provide insights that can be directly applied to clinical interventions and public health strategies. In this Special Issue, we welcome authors to submit papers that showcase innovative research, including, but not limited to, advanced exercise prescription models tailored for specific clinical populations and interdisciplinary approaches combining exercise science with other medical fields, providing tangible benefits for both healthcare professionals and patients.
