In order to maximize sports performance of team sportswomen, knowledge of the player's
characteristics in terms of different aspects and at different times of the season is needed …

Background The research was aimed at comparing the effect of using two types of training
load different in intensity and energy supply. We studied the influence of the proposed load …

The aim of the present study was to analyse the role of exercises' resistance profile in
regional hypertrophy. Thirty-eight healthy women completed a 9-week resistance training …

The physical improvements from strength and resistance training have been known for
