Peak oxygen uptake (V O₂) estimated from the graded exercise test (mLO₂kg⁻¹min⁻¹); %HR_max stage 1–4, percent of age-predicted heart rate (HR) max derived (from 220-age) during stage 1–4 of the modified-Naughton protocol; Body fat (%) (n = 32); TEE, total energy expenditure (n = 32); AEE, activity- related energy expenditure (n = 32); MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity measured with accelerometry; Menopausal status, participants dichotomized by 0 (no) and 1 (yes) indicating whether they experienced menopause.
