Paper

Abstract

We investigated the impact of abrupt interruption, imposed by COVID-19, and subsequent resumption of regular practice of a combined exercise training program on protein, renal profile, and physical functional capacity in physically active older adults before the pandemic.

Research summary

The paper claims that resuming physical activity after COVID-19 interruption improves protein profiles and physical function in older adults. This research is relevant as it addresses the effects of physical activity on aging-related decline in function and health, which is a key aspect of longevity research.
