Implication

Randomized controlled trial shows resistance training enhances functional capacity and respiratory muscle strength in older women, suggesting benefits for health interventions.

Key Points

Resistance training improved functional capacity, showing an 8.02% increase in the six-minute walk test distance.
Diaphragm thickness increased by 16.66% in the resistance training group, contrasting with a decrease of 1.13% in controls.
Maximal inspiratory pressure increased by 12.30% in the training group, while the control group experienced a decrease of 7.25%.
Liver density improved by 12.30% in the training group compared to a 7.25% decrease in controls, highlighting significant physiological benefits.
