Comparison of the Effect of Different Frequencies Weekly Training on Body Composition, Cardiometabolic Risk Factors and Handgrip Strength in Overweight and Obese Women

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a resistance training programme of one or three times a week on body composition, cardiometabolic risk factors and handgrip strength in overweight and obese women

Detailed Description

This study aimed to determine the effects of supervised structured 6 months resistance training and a restricted caloric diet on body composition, cardiometabolic risk factors and handgrip strength in overweight and obese women. 45 women were randomly assigned to one of two groups: a group with a high-weekly frequency of three times a week (HIGH) and a group that performed only one weekly session (LOW).HbA1c, percentage of fat mass and handgrip strength were taken before and after the intervention period.
