Association of objectively measured physical activity and physical fitness with menopause symptoms. The Flamenco Project.

CONCLUSION: The main findings of the present study indicate a weak association of objectively measured MVPA with menopause symptomatology. Exploratory analyses suggest that upper-body flexibility was associated with slightly lower overall menopause impact whereas neither MVPA nor any physical fitness components studied were associated with vasomotor symptoms.
