I’m curious how good of a job they’ve done separating within-person variation from between-person variation in exercise induced changes in risk factors. I would imagine that within-person variation is pretty large, and the sort of hierarchical modeling you would use to tell these sorts of things doesn’t seem that common.
I’m also very curious whether response vs. non-response to exercise correlates risk factors. If you don’t gain VO2 max from exercise, does that mean you also won’t see a drop in blood pressure?
I’m pretty sure the risk factors are separate from each other at least to some extent. There was some material near the beginning about needing to pay attention to what end point you were using to indicate improvement.
