Differential effects of endurance, interval, and resistance training on telomerase activity and telomere length in a randomized, controlled study

Aims It is unknown whether different training modalities exert differential cellular effects. Telomeres and telomere-associated proteins play a major role in cellular aging with implications for global health. This prospective training study examines the effects of endurance training, interval training (IT), and resistance training (RT) on telomerase activity and telomere length (TL).
