Analizar la respuesta cardiorrespiratoria en mujeres deportistas postmenopáusicas y compararla con la de las eumenorreicas. Veintiuna mujeres eumenorreicas (30,5±6,5 años, 58,4±8,7 kg, 25,2±6,7% masa grasa, 48,4±4,4 ml/kg/min V?‡O2peak) y trece postmenopáusicas (51,3±3,6 años, 54,1±4,1 kg, 24,2±5,2% masa grasa, 46,01±9,8 ml/kg/min V?‡O2peak) entrenadas realizaron un protocolo de interválico de alta intensidad. Éste consistió en 8 series de 3 minutos al 85%

To evaluate the cardiorespiratory response to high-intensity interval exercise in endurance-trained postmenopausal women and compare it with their counterparts eumenorrheic females.
Twenty-one eumenorrheic (30.5±6.5 years, 58.4±8.7 kg, 25.2±6.7% fat mass, 48.4±4.4 ml/kg/min V?‡O2peak) and thirteen postmenopausal (51.3±3.6 years, 54.1±4.1 kg, 24.2±5.2% fat mass, 46.01±9.8 ml/kg/min V?‡O2peak) endurance-trained women performed a high-intensity interval running protocol consisted of 8 bouts of 3-min at 85%
