The references were selected from a large number of published material and are by no means a complete listing. The listings are divided into two distinct reference databases.   One, titled "Health and Physical Activity", includes 3,131 separate citations to literature.  The second, titled "Exercise Physiology", includes 223 references from the literature.  Access ACSM's Health & Physical Activity Reference Database today.
