Anthropometric variables before and after eight weeks of resistance training (all subjects). Mean ± Standard Error are reported. (FM = fat mass; MM = muscle mass; MA = muscle area); upper limb was the dominant one.
| Variable | Pre | Post | Significance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total body FM Kg | 12.46 ± 5.62 | 12.54 ± 4.47 | n.s. |
| Total body MM Kg | 33.77 ± 6.23 | 35.5 ± 6.67 | p = 0.0003 |
| Upper limb MA cm2 | 45.13 ± 3.3 | 47.94 ± 4.4 | p = 0.024 |
