Intervention type: OTHER
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Resistance training
Description: RG performed RT with an elastic band (yellow, force of 9-11 pounds when stretched twice the original length). They performed eight movements. Each movement was performed for 3-5 sets at 8 times/sets with 30 s of rest between groups. The movements included upright rows, reverse curls, standing shoulder rotations, neck-elbow extensions, elbow bends, downward lunges, standing leg lifts, side lifts and standing back kicks. All participants completed the RT movements according to the regular rhythm (1-2-1) provided by the experimenter, which ensured that all participants had similar movements completion rates.
