Muscular Strength and Cardiovascular Disease AN UPDATED STATE-OF-THE-ART NARRATIVE REVIEW

摘要

This review discusses the associations of muscular strength (MusS) with cardiovascular disease (CVD), CVD-related death, and all-cause mortality, as well as CVD risk factors, such as metabolic syndrome, diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. We then briefly review the role of resistance exercise training in modulating CVD risk factors and incident CVD.
