Effects of Resistance Training on Autonomic Nervous Function in Older Individuals

Abstract: Skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function decline with aging are the symptoms that characterize sarcopenia, which has become a significant problem in aging societies. Aging is also associated with arterial stiffness and autonomic nervous dysfunction, leading to increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality. Resistance training (RT) is effective for improving muscle fitness in older individuals as well as young healthy individuals. However, the effects of RT on autonomic nervous function… Show more

“…On the other hand, exercise significantly improves HRV-related parameters in patients with T2D, suggesting that exercise can treat ANS dysfunction [15]. Resistance training (RT) combined with aerobic exercise (AE) has shown a favorable effect on autonomic function in older individuals with chronic diseases [16]. Exercise may have a therapeutic effect on diabetes patients complicated with CAN, although it remains unclear whether exercise has a therapeutic or protective effect in diabetes patients with CAN.…”
