Comparison of the effects of exercise training and statins on varied risk factors and health outcome modulators in the prevention of initial and recurrent cardiovascular events. Although both regular exercise and statins appear to confer substantial reductions in cardiovascular mortality, there are numerous independent and additive benefits of exercise over statins when other variables are considered.
