We verified the association between the appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) with the anthropometric variables, biochemical variables, and lifestyle of postmenopausal women.

Sociodemographic, clinical, lifestyle, physical activity level, biochemical, and anthropometric markers were collected. Body composition was assessed by dual-energy densitometry.
