Abstract

Purpose of Review

Although there is extensive research on how much aerobic exercise to prescribe in order to reduce the risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature mortality, there is limited research on how much resistance exercise to prescribe. This review is to help fill important gaps in knowledge on effective minimum dose, beneficial optimum dose, and safe maximum dose of resistance exercise for CVD prevention and longevity.

Recent Findings

In contrast to aerobic exercise where “some is good, more is better," recent observational studies suggested a J-shaped relation where more time in resistance exercise was associated with lower CVD risk and mortality only up to 40–60 min/week, beyond which risk reductions attenuated or even disappeared. While it remains unclear, postulated mechanisms that may underlie the higher CVD risk and mortality with higher resistance exercise doses include increased arterial stiffness and chronic inflammation.

Summary

Current observational data suggest that “more may not be better” for dose-response relations of resistance exercise with CVD and mortality; however, this requires confirmation, especially from randomized controlled trials that directly test and compare multiple doses of resistance exercise. Until these data exist, it is prudent to recommend small doses of resistance exercise for cardiovascular health and longevity.
