Effects of a 9-month resistance training intervention on quality of life, sense of coherence, and depressive symptoms in older adults: randomized controlled trial

Abstract: Purpose(1) To determine the effects of a 9-month resistance training intervention on quality of life, sense of coherence, and depressive symptoms in older adults, and (2) to compare effects between different training frequencies.MethodsMen and women aged 65–75 (N = 106) were randomized to four groups according to training frequency: training groups RT1 (n = 26), RT2 (n = 27), and RT3 (n = 28) and non-training control group (n = 25). All training groups attended supervised resistance training twice a week for 3… Show more

“…However, these associations were attenuated after adjustment for physical activity. This result may support the "mastery hypothesis", according to which participation in physical activity may instil a sense of coherence and mastery resulting in increased positive affect [32,33]. This sense of mastery may not necessarily require a high level of muscle strength or power, and it may also be a function of other socio-psychological factors of participation in physical activity [14].…”

“…this association, but the multivariate analysis suggests that the correlation between impaired SOC and depression and anxiety is independent of disease duration. According to Antonovsky's theory, SOC is stable and enduring, indeed, except for one small study in elderly people, 31 there is still not enough data regarding useful interventions to improve SOC. The current study had some limitations.…”

Here, positive effects of resistance training on quality of life have been noticed [ 115 ].…”
