Abstract des Autors
Women experience many changes during menopause and the climacteric. Physical changes can affect nearly every organ system; social and psychological changes can cause fear and anxiety. However, by exercising, a woman can improve her quality of life and mitigate the negative effects of these changes. Exercise can improve cardiorespiratory fitness, reduce the risk of coronary artery disease, and prevent osteoporosis. Establishing exercise guidelines for menopausal patients can help them reap the advantages of an exercise program. Verf.-Referat
