Sex difference in the heat shock response to high external load resistance training in older humans Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Literature reports on the effects of resistance training on heat shock protein70 (Hsp70) adaptation in older subjects are scarce. Moreover, the optimum training load required to obtain a beneficial adaptation profile is lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of resistance training at various external loads on extracellular Hsp70 (eHsp70) resting levels in older humans.
METHODS: Fifty-six ...
