Figure 1 Effects of a 4-hour golf game in 38 middle-aged male golfers on heart rate, as a percent of maximal heart rate. The American Journal of Medicine 2000 109, 102-108DOI: (10.1016/S0002-9343(00)00455-1)

Figure 2 Percentage changes in the body composition of the 51 golfers and 52 controls who completed the 20-week study in whom measurements of body composition were available. Bars represent 95% confidence intervals. All the between-group differences were statistically significant (P < 0.01).
