Physical activity, job demand–control, perceived stress–energy, and salivary cortisol in white-collar workers
International Archives of Occupational & Environmental Health, 08/17/09

Hansen AM et al. – Physically active employees perceive less stress and more energy. The association between stress–energy and salivary cortisol was affected by vigorous physical activity.
