Changes in inflammatory and oxidative stress markers after resistance training are correlated with changes in phase angle.
Monitoring phase angle may provide insights into the effectiveness of resistance training on health markers.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Changes in TNF‐α (r = −.71), CRP (r = −.65), lower advanced oxidation protein products (r = −.55), and catalase (r = +.73) after RT were correlated with changes in PhA (P < .05).
Why this rating
Based on a randomized controlled trial design.
