Summary
This study looked at whether different types of exercise—aerobic, resistance, or a mix—can reduce the risk of hardening of the arteries in postmenopausal women who don't exercise. 113 women participated, and researchers measured changes in blood vessel health and blood pressure. The goal is to find a simple, effective way to improve heart health without medication.
