Resistance exercise recommendations for adults with kidney disease [25, 30].

	Resistance exercise
Frequency	2–3 d$\cdot$${\mathrm{wk}}^{-1}$
Intensity	65%–75% 1-RM. Performance of 1-RM is not recommended unless medically cleared for such effort; instead, estimate of 1-RM from a $\ge$3-RM test.
Time	A minimum of 1 set of 10–15 repetitions, with a goal in most individuals to achieve multiple sets. Choose 8–10 different exercises targeting the major muscle groups.
Type	Machines, free weights, or bands.

1-RM, one repetition maximum; 3-RM, three repetition maximum.
