• The primary finding of this analysis is that resistance training significantly improved brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) among older adults aged 60 years or more. • The effects of resistance training on BDNF levels were significant regardless of intervention duration or gender. However, the effects were more pronounced in older adults with poor health. • Resistance training caused improvements in depressive symptoms in older adults.
