In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggest that 16 weeks of strength training results in improved muscle quality,
skeletal muscle fiber hypertrophy, accompanied by concomitant changes in biochemical markers known that contribute to whole - body insulin sensitivity; namely, reduced HOMA - IR, increased adiponectin levels and decreased FFA and CRP levels.
We determined the influence of strength training on muscle quality (strength per unit of muscle mass),
skeletal muscle fiber hypertrophy, and metabolic control including insulin resistance (Homeostasis Model Assessment — HOMA - IR), C - Reactive Protein (CRP), adiponectin and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) levels in Hispanic older adults.

skeletal muscle mass throughout the body as a result of a combination of
muscle fiber hyperplasia and
hypertrophy [2].
