Cellular
Significant increases were observed in phase angle (PhA), muscle quality index (MQI), muscular strength, muscle mass, and reactance after 12 weeks of resistance training.
Resistance training can lead to significant improvements in various physical health metrics in older women.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
There were observed significant increases for PhA, MQI, muscular strength, muscle mass, and reactance.
