Controlled physical activity, more strenuous than at rest, which is performed in order to allow assessment of physiological functions, particularly cardiovascular and pulmonary, but also aerobic capacity.

The intensity of exercise is often graded, using criteria such as rate of work done, oxygen consumption, and heart rate. |
