DOES A GOOD FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY (≥10 METS) ATENUATE THE EFFECTS OF AGING ON CARDIOVASCULAR RISK FACTORS? RESULTS FROM THE CARDIOVASCULAR RISK PROFILE FROM SUBJECTS OF ALL AGES ACCORDING TO FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY

Conclusions METS >= 10 were associated with a better CV RF profile and a lower CV risk score in all age groups, and it tends to attenuate the changes of RFs associated with aging, regardless of gender.
