Strength training amounts and inflammation in older adults, a study still recruiting

Recruiting · National Taipei University

What this means

This study will compare different amounts of strength training with no exercise in older adults. It will look at inflammation, a body process linked to aging. No results are available yet, so it cannot tell us what the effects are.

Registry summary

This study aims to investigate the effects of resistance training (RT) with different training volumes on immune modulation and anti-inflammatory responses in older adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three RT volume groups (low, medium, or high) or a non-exercise control group. Participants in the training groups will complete a 4-week RT program, followed by a 4-week detraining phase. The findings are expected to provide evidence for volume-specific RT prescriptions to support healthy aging.
