Abstract

Study aim: To assess the effects of Resistance training (RT) on resting metabolic rate, body composition and insulin sensitivity in women. Material and methods: Two groups of women were studied. Group 1 (15 older women 60.60 ± 3.09 yr.; range 55- 65) and Group 2 (15 younger women 29.07 ± 3.28 yr.; range 25–35) non-obese women were engaged in resistance training (RT) controlled in the same training session for trained 6-month, three times a week, 90 min per session, on non-consecutive days and exercised under the supervision of a personal trainer, to determine whether aging alters changes in fat-free mass (FFM), resting energy expenditure (REE), and glucose disposal. Results: Our study showed that older & younger women experienced a significant increase in fat-free mass (FFM), resting energy expenditure (REE), and glucose disposal following 6 months of resistance training (RT). Nevertheless, our results are similar to those of Lemmer et al. (2001) who found significant increases in FFM in younger and older women following RT although increases were greater in younger women.  Conclusions: older and younger women displayed an increase in FFM REE, and glucose disposal following 6 months of RT.
