Abstract The purpose of the present study was to investigate effect two different resistance training (RT) prescription methods on phase angle (PA) in older women. Seventy‐six women (68.5 ± 5.7 years) were randomly assigned one three groups: groups that performed an eight‐week RT programme either a constant load (CT, n = 25) or ascending pyramidal (PR, 26) routine times per week, control group (CG, no exercise. CT consisted sets 8–12 repetition maximum (RM) with for sets, whereas PR 12/10/8...

BACKGROUND: Studies are conflicting as to whether single-set resistance training (RT) effective multi-set protocols with respect promoting muscular adaptations. Several meta-analyses have shown that a clear dose-response relationship exi

This study analyzed the effects of 12 weeks resistance training (RT) on resting blood pressure (BP) and plasma levels nitric oxide metabolites (NOx) in pre- hypertensive older women, evaluated relationship between these 2 parameters. Thirty-five women (68.2±5.7 years, 70.0±14.4 kg, 157.1±6.4 cm, 28.3±5.0 kg.m⁻²) were randomly allocated into a group (TG; n=17), which performed 12-week RT program, control (CG; n=18), did not perform any physical exercise.
