Summary

Thanks to improved healthcare, the life expectancy of people with ID is increasing and is approaching that of the general population. Several studies have shown that most cardiovascular disease (CVRF) risk factors are as common or even more common in people with ID than in the general population. The guidelines of the American College of Sport Medicine (ACSM) state that a resistance training (RT) programme can can effectively reduce CVRF if performed at a high intensity. A secondary benefit of RT is the increase in muscle strength and muscle mass that can reduce and can improve the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL), also two common problems in people with ID.
