“…To help people and facilitate exercise execution, we suggested elastic resistance training (ERT) for some exercises. Its benefits include improved functional capacity, increased strength and endurance and represent safe equipment during homeconfinement (20). Exercises should be repeated from 8 to 12 times per session.…”

“…A recent systematic review found that training with elastic bands improved muscle strength in “healthy” and “not healthy” older adults, with more pronounced effects in healthy participants [ 59 ]. Elastic resistance exercise also improves functional performance and muscle strength in adults in comparison with no exercise, and is equally effective in improving muscle strength, but not function as traditional resistance training [ 60 ]. Training with elastic bands and tubes can also improve body composition in overweight older [ 61 ] and postmenopausal women [ 62 ], and cardiometabolic markers such as C-reactive protein, glycosylated hemoglobin in patients with the metabolic syndrome [ 63 ].…”

Widespread persistent inactivity makes continued efforts in physical activity promotion a persistent challenge. The precise content of physical activity recommendations is not broadly known, and there are concerns that the general messaging of the guidelines, including the recommendations to perform at least 150 min of at least moderate intensity physical activity per week might seem unattainable for and even actually discourage currently inactive people. Here we show that there are a myriad of ways of being physically active, and provide (in part) out-of-the-box examples of evidence based, pragmatic, easily accessible physical activity regimes below 150 min and/or with lower than moderate intensity that yield meaningful health benefits for currently inactive people.

“…Shahar et al conducted a study with sarcopenic elderly and showed that soy protein did not provide additional effect on RT responses. However, both studies have used RT with elastic band, which can produce different responses from RT with machines . Moreover, training status can influence OS responses to RT and whey protein together.…”

“…However, both studies have used RT with elastic band, which can produce different responses from RT with machines. 17 Moreover, training status can influence OS responses to RT and whey protein together. In young adults, the training status did not influence OS responses to RT alone 18 ; however, these results cannot be extrapolated to older people taking protein supplementation.…”

Background Oxidative stress is an imbalance between antioxidant system and production of free radicals and has been associated with the age‐related deleterious changes. The defense system can be modulated by exercise and nutrition. Objective The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of whey protein supplementation pre‐ or post‐resistance training on oxidative stress and antioxidant enzyme activity in pre‐conditioned older women. Methods In a randomized, double‐blind, and placebo‐controlled design, 70 older women (≥60 years) were randomly assigned to one of the following three groups: whey protein‐placebo (WP‐PLA, n = 24), placebo‐whey protein (PLA‐WP, n = 23), and placebo‐placebo (PLA‐PLA, n = 23). Each group received 35 g of whey product or placebo pre‐ and post‐training. The RT program was carried out over 12 weeks (3x/week; 3x 8‐12 repetitions maximal). Oxidative stress and blood markers were assessed before and after intervention period. ANOVA for repeated measures was used for data analysis. Results There was a significant time effect (P < 0.05), with all groups showing improvements in all oxidative stress markers and antioxidant enzyme activity. A significant (P < 0.001) interaction time vs group was observed for uric acid, with both WP‐PLA and PLA‐WP presenting greater reductions compared with the PLA‐PLA, without differences between the timing of protein intake (WP‐PLA: −8.3%; PLA‐WP: −11.0%; PLA‐PLA:‐2.0%). Conclusion In already pre‐conditioned older women, whey protein supplementation reduces plasma uric acid concentration with no further effect on antioxidant enzyme activity and oxidative stress markers.

Effects of Elastic Resistance Exercise on Muscle Strength and Functional Performance in Healthy Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: ERE are effective to improve functional performance and muscle strength when compared with no intervention, in healthy adults. ERE are not superior to other methods of resistance training to improve functional performance and muscle strength in health adults.
