Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Premenopausal women

The Premenopausal women are randomized to exercise by spinning (cycle)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Spinning

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

After the baseline studies the pre and postmenopausal women will be randomized to spinning training groups and the intervention will last for 3 months. The spinning group will spin three times per week under guidance of a trained instructor. The training is heart rate monitored.

Postmenopausal women

The Postmenopausal women are randomized to exercise by spinning (cycle)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Spinning

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

After the baseline studies the pre and postmenopausal women will be randomized to spinning training groups and the intervention will last for 3 months. The spinning group will spin three times per week under guidance of a trained instructor. The training is heart rate monitored.
