Flow diagram of this study. Baseline testing (T0) will be done before stratified randomization/allocation to either group. There will be a further collection of blood samples 6 weeks after intervention onset (midpoint) at rest (T1), after resistance exercises (T1.1) and immediately after the training session (T1.2) to investigate effects of acute training. Assessment of blood samples from the control group at T1 will be done at the German Sport University Cologne without further measurements at T1.1 and T1.2. After the 12-week intervention period (T2), all outcome measures will be assessed 48 h after the last training session to investigate effects of chronic training
