Automatic motivation and physical opportunities have direct effects on the duration of resistance training participation among GLP-1 medication users.

Interventions should enhance automatic motivation and ensure physical opportunities to increase resistance training duration.

Psychological support, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, increases patient adherence and improves long-term outcomes.

Incorporating psychological support can enhance treatment adherence and effectiveness.

Cognitive–behavioral methods focusing on emotional eating lead to greater improvements in emotional eating and related weight and waist circumference reductions compared to education-based approaches.

Practitioners should consider implementing cognitive-behavioral strategies that focus on emotional eating in obesity treatment programs.

Obesity management requires a long-term multimodal strategy that incorporates individualized treatment goals.

Practitioners should develop personalized management plans for obesity that consider individual goals and interventions.

Strength training can improve the quality of life of older adults with sarcopenia.

Practitioners should consider implementing strength training programs for older adults with sarcopenia to enhance their quality of life.

Strength training is more effective in high-intensity and supervised interventions.

Focus on high-intensity and supervised strength training for better outcomes.

Whey protein supplementation had a significant effect on bench press performance (MD 5.72; 95% CI:1.30, 10.15; p=0.02).

Practitioners may consider recommending whey protein to enhance upper body strength in young adults involved in resistance training.

Sleep time increased by 36 ± 19 min from START to END (7h 36 ± 34 min vs 8h 12 ± 41 min) and sleep disturbances were not observed during the study period.

Practitioners can expect that sleep quality may be maintained or improved during competition preparation.

Regular strength training is highly effective for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia.

Practitioners should implement regular strength training programs for older adults to prevent sarcopenia.

High-intensity training with 2 sessions of 30-45 minutes each is an efficient method for older adults.

Older adults should engage in high-intensity training sessions to maximize efficiency.

Higher frequency resistance training (RT) leads to significantly greater improvements in muscle strength compared to lower frequency RT.

Practitioners should consider increasing the frequency of resistance training sessions to enhance strength gains.

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.

Four sessions of resistance training per week produced greater gains in muscular strength for the upper body measures (1RM bench press and arm curl) compared to two sessions per week.

Increasing the frequency of resistance training sessions can enhance upper body strength gains.

Resistance training improved muscle strength, explosive actions performance, and markers of muscle size in recreationally trained men.

Resistance training is effective for enhancing strength and muscle size in trained individuals.

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.

Both two and four sessions of resistance training can effectively improve body composition and performance in recreationally trained men.

Four sessions of resistance training per week produced greater gains in muscular strength for the upper body measures (1RM bench press and arm curl) compared to two sessions per week.

Increasing resistance training frequency to four sessions per week may enhance upper body strength gains.

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.

Four sessions of resistance training per week produced greater gains in muscular strength for upper body measures (1RM bench press and arm curl) compared to two sessions per week.

For optimal strength gains, practitioners should consider recommending four sessions of resistance training per week.

Exercise selection and rest periods can be modified to fit the needs and preferences of individuals with limited time to train.

Practitioners should consider individual preferences when designing time-efficient training programs.

Nutrition counseling has a measurable impact on the eating behavior of bariatric surgery patients.

Practitioners should incorporate nutrition counseling as a key component of pre-surgery preparation for bariatric patients.

Moderate carbohydrate restriction is easier to maintain compared to greater carbohydrate restriction.

Practitioners should consider moderate carbohydrate diets for better patient adherence.

Moderation in food choices can be promoted without moralizing through systems like the 'traffic light' system.

Practitioners can utilize moderation-focused approaches to improve dietary habits without inducing guilt.

A community setting is effective for promoting and improving health behaviors.

Community-based programs can be leveraged to improve health behaviors effectively.

Aerobic exercise training may positively influence nerve function among people with type 2 diabetes.

Practitioners should consider recommending aerobic exercise to improve nerve function in patients with type 2 diabetes.
