Rava A, et al. - Whether body composition and mobility parameters differ among older women with various levels of engagement in physical activity was investigated in this study involving healthy older women aged from 65 to 91 years. Additionally, the links between mobility and distinct levels of physical activity also evaluated. Based on the weekly moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time in 10 min bouts, allocation of participants to following three groups was done: highest MVPA (H-MVPA), middle MVPA (M-MVPA) and lowest MVPA (L-MVPA); this was followed by evaluation of body composition (fat mass [FM] and fat free mass [FFM]) variables and static and dynamic balance, lower limbs strength and aerobic capacity via mobility tests. MVPA was found to be related to body composition and mobility parameters, while no association of light physical activity with any measured body composition nor mobility parameters was found. The benefits of MVPA in healthy older women could include maintaining body composition and mobility parameters to preserve independence in later life.
