The Effects of Resistance Training on Systemic Inflammatory Markers in Aging Men

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of resistance training on systemic inflammatory markers of cardiovascular disease risk in aging men. For this purpose, 20 male subjects (age 60-70) voluntarily participated in our study. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of two groups: Resistance training or control group. The resistance training was circuit resistance training for 8 weeks, 3 sessions per week and with 50-65% of one repetition maximum. Pre and post 8 weeks of resistance training blood samples were taken (5cc) in fasting state from all subjects. The data was analyzed via t dependent and independent test. Results showed that resistance training caused a significant decrease in the serum CRP and plasma fibrinogen levels of the aging men (a= 0.05). We concluded that resistance training caused a decrease in the inflammatory markers and probably is decreased future cardiovascular risk in aging men.
