This study describes the effects of RT on muscle strength, lean mass and bone mineralization, highlighting the relationships between them ♨️ and analyzing the effectiveness of the RT protocol. Information searches were conducted in open access online academic libraries, using the BMC/BMD ♨️ indices combined with muscle strength, body composition, and resistance exercises. The results showed changes in BMC/BMD in 72% of the studies ♨️ published in the last decade. Among these, 77% recommended loads ≥ 80% 1-RM, 61% involved older individuals (> 60 years) and ♨️ 61% had planning protocols of between 3 and 5 months (-12-20 weeks). The results also highlight muscle strength as a promising ♨️ index of variations in BMC/BMD, with a moderate to high level of association (r 2 >0. |
