Aim Chronic inflammation increases with age and is correlated positively to visceral fat
mass, but inversely to muscle mass. We investigated the hypothesis that resistance training …

Aging is associated with low‐grade inflammation. The benefits of regular exercise for the
elderly are well established, whereas less is known about the impact of low‐intensity …

Background Reductions in skeletal muscle mass and increased adiposity are key elements
in the aging process and in the pathophysiology of several chronic diseases. Systemic low …

Background and Purpose: Elderly individuals participate in resistance exercise to induce an
anabolic response and grow muscle to help overcome functional deficits. It is thought that a …

Age-associated chronic basal inflammation compromises muscle mass and adaptability, but
exercise training may exert an anti-inflammatory effect. This investigation assessed basal …

The aim of the present study was to determine if the training status decreases inflammation,
slows down senescence, and preserves telomere health in skeletal muscle in older …

Objectives Chronic systemic low grade inflammation is associated with the age-related loss
of muscle mass. Resistance exercise has been suggested to reduce or lower chronic …

Inflammation Relates to Resistance Training–induced Hypertrophy in Elderly Patients. Med …

Abstract Introduction and Methods: This study compared changes in myokine and myogenic
genes following resistance exercise (3 sets of 12 repetitions of maximal unilateral knee …

Aging is associated with increased circulating pro-inflammatory and lower anti-inflammatory
cytokines. Exercise training, in addition to improving muscle function, reduces these …
