The “fat but fit paradox” states that people who are have a lower cluster cardiometabolic risk (CCMR), even if they overweight or obese. Therefore, the objective was to investigate CCMR between four categories based on variable, in different fitness categories—cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular and physical fitness—in adolescents. Body composition, cardiorespiratory muscle blood samples, pressure were assessed 230 adolescents, three variables calculated. Participants with higher CRF...

Background: Menopause induces physiological changes in women, including increased risks of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and muscle loss, which can be mitigated by physical exercise. This study aimed to evaluate the effects a 12-week multicomponent exercise programme, performed 2 or 3 days per week, on health fitness parameters postmenopausal women. Methods: Eighty-three women (aged 50–65 years) were randomly assigned three groups: control group (CG, n = 27), days/week (EG2, 28), (EG3,...
