Both constant load and ascending pyramidal load resistance training improve phase angle in older women after eight weeks.
Practitioners can use either training method to enhance phase angle in older female clients.

The results suggest that eight weeks of RT based on a PR and CT load routines promote an improvement in PA.
Why this rating
Based on the randomized controlled trial design.
