Popis: Abstract Background A sarcopenia diagnosis is confirmed by the presence of low muscle quantity or quality under the 2018 revised definition by the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People 2. Imaging methods [i.e. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)], dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), and bioelectrical impedance analysis are tools to evaluate muscle quantity or quality. The present study aimed to investigate whether and how low‐intensity and moderate‐intensity resistance training improved both muscle quantity and quality measured by MRI, DXA, and segmental bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (S‐BIS) in middle‐aged and older people. Methods A single‐blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted. Community‐dwelling people aged 50–79 years were randomly allocated to no exercise (no‐Ex), low‐intensity exercise (low‐Ex), and moderate‐intensity exercise (moderate‐Ex) groups. Participants in the exercise groups performed resistance training for 24 weeks, with loads of 40% and 60% of one repetition maximum in the low‐Ex and moderate‐Ex groups, respectively. Cross‐sectional area (CSA), lean mass, and muscle electrical properties on S‐BIS were used to determine the effects of training interventions on muscle quantity and quality of the lower limbs. Results Fifty participants (no‐Ex 17, age 63.5 ± 8.5 years, women 47.1%; low‐Ex 16, age 63.6 ± 8.1 years, women 50.0%; moderate‐Ex 17, age 63.5 ± 8.3 years, women 52.9%) completed the 24 week exercise intervention. For the primary outcome, significant intervention effects were found in thigh muscle CSA on MRI between the moderate‐Ex and no‐Ex groups (+6.8 cm2, P
