“…PhA in the human body typically ranges from 1° to 12° (Sardinha & Rosa, 2023 ), and higher values within this range are positively associated with muscle strength and physical function (Cioffi et al, 2020 ; Custodio Martins et al, 2022 ; Fukuoka et al, 2022 ; Giorgi et al, 2018 ; Langer et al, 2022 ; Micheli et al, 2014 ; Norman et al, 2011 ; Piccoli et al, 2007 ; Rodriguez‐Rodriguez et al, 2016 ; Sato et al, 2020 ). Increases in PhA have been reported following resistance training programs and concurrent exercise training (Campa, Colognesi, et al, 2022 ; Sardinha & Rosa, 2023 ). Alternatively, low PhA has been reported in individuals presentingmalnutrition, alcoholism, cancer/cachexia, HIV, sarcopenia, and in older adults (Cardinal et al, 2010 ; Fukuoka et al, 2022 ; Genton et al, 2017 , 2018 ; Gupta et al, 2008 ; Lukaski et al, 2017 ; Nescolarde et al, 2013 ; Tanaka et al, 2019 ; Toso et al, 2000 ).…”
