The overall discussions reflect strong support and interest, with many posts emphasizing the significance of the findings for older adults, such as 'strength gains were nearly identical between 30 and 62,' and using tone and phrases like 'age is no excuse,' which reinforce the positive impact of resistance training regardless of age.
AgreementModerate agreement
Most discussions express support for the study's findings, emphasizing that older men response positively to resistance training, with comments like 'age is no excuse' and 'strength gains are similar.'
InterestHigh interest
There is high interest shown by users exploring the implications for older adults and strength training, demonstrated by mentions of 'building strength at 62' and importance of training routines.
EngagementModerate engagement
The discussions include specific references to training practices and hormonal effects, indicating a moderate level of engagement where users analyze methodological and practical aspects.
ImpactModerate impact
While some posts highlight the encouraging results for aging populations, overall impact remains moderate as the discussions focus on reinforcement of known ideas with some emphasis on practical applications.
Abstract in brief
This study examined how heavy resistance training affects hormone levels in younger (30 years old) and older (62 years old) men over 10 weeks, measuring hormones like testosterone, cortisol, growth hormone, and IGF-related proteins before and after exercise.
Both groups showed increases in muscle strength and size, but younger men had higher baseline testosterone levels, while older men showed significant hormonal responses, such as increased total testosterone and decreased cortisol, especially early in the training program.
Overall, older men do respond hormonally to strength training, but their responses differ from younger men, indicating age-related changes in how the endocrine system adapts to resistance exercise.]
Age is no excuse
You can build strength at 62 similarly to 30
Strength gains were nearly identical between the 2 groups
Hypertrophy was greater in the 30 group
But perhaps this could be mitigated with higher protein/ caloric intake in the 60 group

Acutely, testosterone *usually* goes up, depending on intensity and when tests are done. The effect is blunted in older people though. https://t.co/tw75lFSOM2
