Background and Objective: Finding an effective way to improve body composition and muscular strength with resistance training, has engaged researchers. Previous studies have shown that proper nutrition is one of these ways. The purpose of this study is to review the effect of resistance training accompanied by nutritional education on the body composition and muscular strength in non-athlete male students. Materials and Methods: This study was a clinical trial, which was done on a population of 32 non-athletes college students which randomly divided into four groups, Education - Resistance training (RT), Resistance training, Education and control. The instruments for data collection were a nutritional questionnaire, record of all the foods for three days and measurement of some of the anthropometric indices. This study lasted for 6- weeks with educational intervention and the resulting data analyzed by paired t-test, one-way analysis of variance and TUKEY multiple comparisons test. Results: The results showed that subjects' weight in Education- RT and resistance training groups has significant increase. Fat changes in three groups of Education- RT, Resistance training and Education showed a important decrease and BMI, maximum muscular strength and muscular hypertrophy in Education- RT and Resistance training groups showed a consequential increase (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study showed that doing resistance training along with nutritional education brings about greater improvement in body composition and muscular strength.
