N2 - Research published by Rogerson et al. in this issue of Heart Lung and Circulation [1] prompts consideration of the evolution of physical activity recommendations and cardiovascular disease (CVD) management. In their manuscript, Rogerson et al. found that sedentary behaviour was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality in people with CVD. This represents a 180-degree shift in our understanding of physical activity and associated recommendations compared to 60 years ago. The purpose of this article is to provide a historical overview of the evolution of physical activity recommendations and associated strategies for patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).
