Velocity-Based Resistance Training Effects on Inflammation in Older Adults
Sponsor: National Taipei University
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.

Resistance exercise
The RT program will consist of 12 sessions over a 4-week period, with participants training three times per week and at least one rest day between sessions. All sessions will be supervised by research personnel to ensure proper technique and safety. Exercises will be performed using resistance machines and will include chest press, shoulder press, seated row, lat pulldown, and leg press.
