Abstract

Higher cardiorespiratory fitness may be associated with better bone health in older age, though this has not been investigated using state-of-the-science VO

The following analysis is generated by AI and may contain errors. It is separate from the authors’ abstract and is not peer review.

Research summary

Higher cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with better bone health in older adults. This research explores a potential link between fitness and bone health, which could contribute to understanding factors that influence aging and longevity.
