Objective: We studied the cardioprotective effect of resistance training against ischaemia-reperfusion-induced injury.
Methods: Forty male rats were divided into trained and sedentary groups (n = 20 for each). The trained rats were exercised at 12 repetitions/set, four sets/day and five days/week for four weeks.
Background: Discovering an effective approach to provide cardioprotection against coronary artery disease has long been sought. We studied the cardioprotective effect of resistance training against ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury.
Methods: Twenty male rats were divided into trained and sedentary groups (n = 10 in each).
