The present study was designed to examine whether different measures of physical fitness are differentially associated with white matter (WM) microstructure in older adults. Fifty‐six healthy adults (mean age: 59.14 years) completed a standardized evaluation of physical fitness measurements (eg, VO2peak, push‐ups, abdominal sit‐ups, sit‐and‐reach, t test, and vertical jump). Fractional anisotropy (FA), an index of WM microstructure, was assessed using diffusion tensor imaging. The findings indicated that the cardiorespiratory fitness was …
