Wakeham D, Pierce G, Heffernan K
Pulse (Basel) . 2025 Feb; 13(1):31-44. PMID: 39991443
Background: Engaging in habitual resistance exercise training (RET; also known as strength training) causes systemic health effects beyond those caused by aerobic/endurance exercise training alone. Despite the resoundingly favorable effect...
