Abstract

This review aims to, firstly, to revise the importance of achieving, maintaining and recovering muscle mass and strength for improved health outcomes. Secondly, evaluate the benefits of directing the focus of medical interventions towards hypertrophic exercise and diet as an effective treatment to improve health and longevity. Thirdly, we propose the CyFit SmartGym, a novel device, as a potential screening tool for monitoring strength levels and as a HIIT/strength training for improving and documenting health outcomes.
