Objectives: Verify the effect of resistance training (RT) in muscle mass and muscle strength in older adults. Methods: Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) published between 2005 and 2015, with a study population aged 65 and up that went through an RT based intervention were analysed. Body composition should be assessed by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry or Computed Tomography Scan. Internal validity of each art...
