Muscle weakness is a key component of age-related conditions such as sarcopenia and
frailty. Resistance training is highly effective at preventing and treating muscle weakness; …

For older adults, exercise that challenges the muscular system, commonly referred to as
resistance training, has significant physical, psychometrical and functional benefits. While …

Regular participation in resistance training is important for older people to maintain their
health and independence, yet participation rates are low. The study aimed to identify …

Objectives This trial aimed to determine the feasibility of recruitment, retention, adherence,
and safety of a resistance training (RT) intervention to skeletal muscle failure in both frail and …

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that were responsible for the feelings of
satisfaction and the behaviours of adherence to an intense exercise intervention recently …

Aim Exercise is one of the most important components in frailty prevention and treatment.
Therefore, we systematically reviewed the effect of resistance training (RT) alone or …

Background Many older adults live with the combination of multiple long-term conditions
(MLTC) and frailty and are at increased risk of a deterioration in health requiring interaction …
