Abstract:Myositis is associated with reduced quality of life, which is accompanied by significant impairments in muscle endurance and strength, altogether representing cardinal traits in patients with myositis. This randomised controlled trial aimed to investigate the effect of high-intensity resistance training on quality of life in patients with myositis. Thirty-two patients with established, stable myositis were randomised to 16 weeks of high-intensity resistance training (intervention group) or 16 weeks of usual ca… Show more
