Fred Astaire Funding The candidate work was supported by a doctoral grant from Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) SFRH/BD/36319/2007, and the doctoral thesis was included in a financed research project PTDC/DES/102094/2008 FCOMP-01-0124- FEDER-009587 from FCT. Acknowledgments I’m grateful to my supervisor Professor Joana Carvalho for her guidance during the course of this work, and for the support in all moments (far beyond the academic level). Thanks for the friendship and happiness that describes our bond, which I define as exceptional. I own to you not only my academic path but above all what defines me now, different from whom I would be if you have not invited me for the challenging (present and future) research field in physical activity and health. I would like to extend my gratitude to Professor Jorge Mota for his guidance, constant attention and care. Thanks for making everything always possible, more accessible and straightforward. I’m grateful for the trusting vote that you gave me, and I hope never disappointing you. I’m grateful to Professor Pedro Moreira from the Faculty of Nutrition and Food Sciences UP for his help and suggestions provided, looking for the nutritional contribution, but especially for his constant readiness and kindness. To Doctor Tiago Guimarães from Department of Clinical Pathology - Hospital de S. João, and Department of Biochemistry – Faculty of Medicine UP for the generous support and suggestions. To Doctor Rosa Pereira, Valéria Caparbo and Liliam Takayama from Bone metabolism laboratoty - Department of Rheumatology - University of São Paulo, Brasil for their hospitality and support during the traineeship period. To Wojtek and Andiara for being so supportive on both the personal and scientific level. To Professors Paula Santos and José Carlos Ribeiro for having accepted me at your office with friendship and consideration. To Dr. Diana Tuna, Nádia, Joana, Margarida and Dr. Conceição for the exceptional support during the laboratory assays. To my colleagues Daniel, João, Flávia, and Gustavo for the support, assistance and teamwork. To Andreia, with whom I share everything, for her sincerely friendship and care. To Alberto and Luisa Miranda for being always available for our “scientific meetings” of honest exchange of opinions. To my sample of study for the commitment and kindly support and care. To all who collaborate in the collecting process and data management of this study. To Leandro Machado and André Seabra for always having their office door open. To my friends Filipa Sousa, António Ascensão and José Magalhães for their cheering friendship and support.
