Resistance training performed three days per week also improves cellular health indicators in older women.
Practitioners can also recommend a three-day per week resistance training program for older women to enhance cellular health.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Phase angle, resistance, reactance, and total body water were assessed by bioimpedance spectroscopy... G3X (5.0%, 6.9%, and 10.3%, respectively) from pretraining to posttraining.
Why this rating
The study involved a randomized controlled trial design.
