Modifications to Phase Angle After Resistance Training Are Associated With Changes in Body Composition, Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Older Women
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Resistance Training for Body Composition, Beneficial and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 51 participants.
Detailed Summary
The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of resistance training (RT) on phase angle (PhA), body composition, inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers, in older women and to evaluate whether RT induced adaptations on body composition, inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers are related to healthy adaptations in PhA.

Interventions
The investigation was carried out over a period of 16 weeks, with 12 weeks dedicated to the RT program and 4 weeks allocated for measurements. Anthropometric, body composition, and blood samples measurements were performed at weeks 1-2, and 15-16. A supervised progressive RT was performed between weeks 3-14. The CG did not perform any type of physical exercise during this period.
