The Claim
In adults aged 60–85 years, resistance training combined with protein supplementation does not cause adverse changes in renal function or cardiovascular hemodynamics over a 3-month period, as measured by stable blood pressure, heart rate, and urine markers.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
For adults aged 60 to 85, doing resistance training and taking protein supplements does not change blood pressure, heart rate, or urine markers over three months.
See the scientific wording
In adults aged 60–85 years, resistance training and protein supplementation do not appear to have adverse effects on renal function or cardiovascular hemodynamics over a 3-month period, based on the absence of reported negative changes in blood pressure, heart rate, or urine markers.
When older adults lift weights and drink extra protein, their kidneys and blood vessels do not change how they work because the body keeps filtering blood at the same rate and maintains normal pressure in the arteries without overworking the heart or kidneys.
What the research says
1 studyThis study checked if lifting weights and drinking protein shakes hurt older adults’ kidneys or blood pressure over three months—and found no signs of harm. So, it’s safe to say these activities don’t hurt them.
