Intensity-dependent associations of physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness with hair cortisol concentrations in the context of lifetime air pollution exposure

Veronika Cibulcova, Steriani Elavsky, Lukáš Cipryan, Marta Jackowska et al.

Short summary

Vigorous physical activity, but not moderate activity or cardiorespiratory fitness, was positively associated with higher hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in adults (N=133), suggesting intensity matters when using HCC as a chronic stress biomarker.
