Strength Training and Inflammation in Older Adults
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a specific type of strength training reduces inflammation in the body for adults aged 60–75. Researchers will measure how your body responds to this training over time.
