This research evaluated physiologic changes in women after a 12 week resistance training (RT) or concurrent training (CT) program. Eighteen women (38-61 years) were randomized to a training group that trained three times per week. Resistance workouts (both groups) included 30 minutes of exercises. The concurrent group also completed 30 min of moderate intensity cardiovascular exercise during each training session. Two-factor (group x time) repeated measures analysis of variance evaluated group differences and time-related changes in FFM and RMR. Alpha was set at < .05 for all analyses. Repeated measures ANOVA evaluated group differences and time-related changes in all other variables. Significant increases in FFM (p = .045), RMR (p = .01), bench press (p = .0001), and HDL (p = .03) were found for the entire sample from pre- to post-test. Neither training modality (RT or CT) proved superior in eliciting physiologic change in individuals.
