Study Summary

This study will test the central hypothesis that fat within the muscle, or intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), exhibits elevated damage and pro-inflammatory signaling with aging, both of which are reduced by progressive resistance exercise (PRE). Sixteen older adults 65-80 years old will be recruited and complete a 12 week calf PRE intervention. Calf muscle strength, composition (measured by computed tomography) and muscle biopsies will be collected before and after the intervention. Histology, transcriptomic and secretomic tests will be completed to assess signs of damage and inflammation.
