Low‐load resistance exercise during inactivity is associated with greater fibre area and satellite cell expression in older skeletal muscle
Abstract Background Age‐related sarcopenia is accelerated by physical inactivity. Low‐load resistance exercise (LLRE) counters inactivity‐induced muscle atrophy in older adults, but changes in muscle fibre morphology are unstudied. We aimed to determine the impact of LLRE during short‐term inactivit...
