All the 120 subjects underwent a modified Bruce exercise protocol testing on a treadmill after taking blood sample for lipid profile. Heart rate was recorded during the exercise at each stage and also during the recovery period (1 minute, 2 minute and 5 minutes after the exercise)Result: The heart rate recovery was lower in the post-menopausal group when compared to premenopausal women and the difference was statistically significant (P</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords>Heart rate recovery, lipid profile, postmenopausal women</Keywords> <URLs> <Abstract>https://njbms.in/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=4143&title=Heart Rate Recovery and Lipid Profile in Postmenopausal Women</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References/> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
