Neural
Both resistance training groups (two sessions and four sessions per week) increased chest and thigh circumferences, strength, and explosive actions performance tests compared to the control group after 8 weeks of training.
Incorporating resistance training can lead to significant improvements in body composition and performance metrics.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Both training groups increased chest and thigh circumferences, strength and explosive actions performance tests in comparison to CG following 8 weeks of training (p=0.01 to 0.04).
Why this rating
Based on the randomized controlled trial design.
