[Question] how do you actually verify resistance training

Questionbranch of 8 comments

how do you actually verify resistance training. I am not trying to be the "source?" guy. I would just like a source. What the evidence actually supports, stripped of the arguing. Some lean mass is lost in any weight-loss deficit. Resistance training and adequate protein intake are the two interventions with real…
