Key result
Aerobic high-intensity exercise training for 12 weeks enhanced vascular and skeletal muscle mitochondrial adaptations more in early postmenopausal women compared to premenopausal women (P<0.05).

May support targeted high-intensity training in early postmenopause; hypothesis-generating and requires RCTs before practice change.

p-value: p=<0.05
Early postmenopausal women exhibit enhanced leg vascular and skeletal muscle mitochondrial adaptations to aerobic high-intensity exercise training compared to premenopausal women.
Nyberg et al. (2017) studied this question. Aerobic high-intensity exercise training vs. Premenopausal women was evaluated on Haemodynamic response and skeletal muscle mitochondrial adaptations (p=<0.05). Aerobic high-intensity exercise training for 12 weeks enhanced vascular and skeletal muscle mitochondrial adaptations more in early postmenopausal women compared to premenopausal women (P<0.05).
