Background: Effective hypertrophy-oriented resistance training (RT) should comprise a
combination of mechanical tension and metabolic stress. Regarding training variables, the …

The purpose of this paper was to systematically review the current literature and elucidate
the effects of total weekly resistance training (RT) volume on changes in measures of muscle …

Lack of time is among the more commonly reported barriers for abstention from exercise
programs. The aim of this review was to determine how strength training can be most …

Background Resistance training (RT) is an intervention frequently used to improve muscle
strength and morphology in old age. However, evidence-based, dose–response …

A growing body of evidence supports the use of moderate blood flow restriction (BFR)
combined with low-load resistance exercise to enhance hypertrophic and strength …

Background Acute protein turnover studies suggest lower anabolic response after ingestion
of plant vs. animal proteins. However, the effects of an exclusively plant-based protein diet …

Background During the aging process, physical capabilities (eg, muscular strength) and
cognitive functions (eg, memory) gradually decrease. Regarding cognitive functions …

Objective To determine how distinct combinations of resistance training prescription (RTx)
variables (load, sets and frequency) affect muscle strength and hypertrophy. Data sources …

This study examined the possibility of using movement velocity as an indicator of relative
load in the bench press (BP) exercise. One hundred and twenty strength-trained males …

The purpose of this review was to provide a physiological rationale for the use of eccentric
resistance training and to provide an overview of the most commonly prescribed eccentric …
