The aim of this study was to compare the effects of different cluster set (CS) configurations on mechanical performance and electromyography (EMG) activity during the bench press (BP) exercise. Fourteen strength-trained men (age 23.0 ± 2.4 years; height 1.76 ± 0.08 m; body mass 78.3 ± 12.2 kg) performed 3 different protocols in the BP exercise...

Aim: to investigate the relationship among pull up and lat pull exercises and differentanthropometric dimensions in trained athletes. Methods: twenty-five males were evaluated for maximum number of pull ups, one-repetitionmaximum lat pull (1RM Lat Pull), lat pull repetitions at 80% 1RM (Lat Pull at 80% 1RM), latpull ...

Purpose: This study aimed: i) to analyze the inter-individual variability in the maximal 5 number of repetitions (MNR) performed against a given relative load (%1RM) and, ii) to 6 examine the relationship between the velocity loss (VL) magnitude and the percentage of 7 completed repetitions with regard to the MNR (%Rep), when the %1RM is...

Scientific examination of velocity-based resistance training (VBRT) has increased recently, but how males and females respond to different VBRT protocols or how these acute responses are modified after a period of training is unknown. Habitually resistance-trained males and females followed either a 20 or 40% velocity-loss programme for 8...

This study aimed to analyze the effects of two pull-up (PU) training programs that 5 differed in the magnitude of repetition velocity loss allowed in each set (25% velocity 6 loss "VL25" vs. 50% velocity loss "VL50") on PU performance. Twenty-nine nine 7 strength-trained men (age = 26.1 ± 6.3 years, body mass = 74.2 ± 6.4 kg, 15.9 ± 4.9 PU...

Purpose: To analyze the acute and short-term physical and metabolic responses to resisted sprint training with 5 different loading conditions (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% body mass). Methods: Fifteen male participants performed 8 × 20-m sprints with 2-minute rests between sprints with 5 different loading conditions. Subjects performed a...

Purpose: To investigate the effect of different resistance training (RT) protocols with 5 equated volume load on acute mechanical and metabolic responses. Methods: In a 6 randomized order, eighteen men performed 8 different training protocols in the bench 7 press exercise consisting of (sets, repetitions, intensity, and inter-set recoveries):...

Purpose: this study analyzed the effects of three training interventions: isolated 6 endurance training (ET) and two concurrent training (CT), which differed in the velocity 7 loss magnitude allowed during the resistance training set: 15% (VL15) vs. 45% (VL45), 8 on strength and endurance running performance. 9 Methods: Thirty-three...

This study aimed to analyze the relationships between different strength, power 6 and speed abilities and resisted sprint performance across a wide range of sled loads (10%, 7 30% and 50% body mass "BM"). Seventy-nine young physically active male sports 8 science students (age: 22.8 ± 3.4 years; BM: 74.2 ± 9.1 kg; height: 175.4 ± 8.5 cm) 9...

This study explored the effects of 4 bench-press (BP) training programs with different velocity-loss (VL) thresholds (0%, 15%, 25%, and 50%) on strength gains and neuromuscular adaptations. Methods: Forty-six resistance-trained men (22.8 [4.4] y) were randomly assigned into 4 groups that differed in the VL allowed within the set: 0% (VL0), 15%...

: (1) Background: The aim of this paper is to analyze the acute effects of different velocity loss (VL) thresholds during a full squat (SQ) with blood-flow restriction (BFR) on strength performance, neuromuscular activity, metabolic response, and muscle contractile properties. (2) Methods: Twenty strength-trained men performed four protocols...
