Bilateral and unilateral resistance training and athletic performance
… optimal transfer of physiological adaptation of training to improved athletic performance. In resistance training, it has long been identified that the closer the mechanical specificity between the training exercise and outcome performance, the greater the transfer of improved capacity. Bilateral …

Resistance training for patients with chronic heart failure
… fatigue and breathlessness. The effects of resistance training on muscle strength and endurance and functional aerobic capacity were evaluated in 9 men (63 ± 11 years; mean ± s.d) with CHF (LVEF 26 ± 6%). Training comprised bilateral upper and lower body resistance exercises for 3 sessions …

Physiological studies investigating neurological adaptations to resistance training
The effect of different strength training paradigms on corticospinal excitability and inhibition was studied throughout this thesis. The primary aim was to investigate the corticospinal responses following isometric, isotonic, cross-education and wholebody vibration (WBV) strength training, and to …

Neurophysiological Adaptations to Resistance Training and Repetitive Grasping
… on both cumulative and acute effects of motor training to better understand adaptive processes. Neural adaptations accompany resistance training, but current evidence regarding the nature of these adaptations is best characterized as indirect, particularly with respect to adaptation within …

Micro-dosing of resistance training in soccer players
Micro-dosing of resistance training is “the division of total volume within a micro-cycle, across frequent, short duration, repeated bouts” as defined within this thesis, and is a concept built on a foundation of well-established training approaches, methods, and theories. Despite drawing influence …

ADAPTATIONS FOLLOWING UPPER EXTREMITY RESISTANCE TRAINING IN OLDER ADULTS
… muscle volume, strength, and functional ability; resistance training (RT) is commonly used to mitigate these negative effects. RT leads to hypertrophy and neuromuscular adaptation; however, relative changes in various measures of strength following upper extremity RT in older adults remain …

The efficacy of periodized resistance training in older adults
… of the aging neuromuscular system in response to resistance training (RT). Yet, despite an abundance of research studies describing the benefits of RT in the elderly, there is a large variation in the type of training programs employed. Therefore, within the extensive range of beneficial RT …

The Influence of Resistance Training on Primary Hemostatic Responses
… ways to combat these problems. Long term resistance training has been viewed as one possible approach in helping to reduce the hyperaggragability of platelets following acute strenuous exercise. The present investigation was designed to explore the effects of an acute resistance exercise …

High-intensity aerobic and resistance training for metabolic syndrome
… time and accessibility. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) may offer a solution to these barriers. This thesis explores the role of HIIT to improve cardiovascular risk factors in adults with MetS. The literature review (Chapter 2) examined exercise for adults with MetS. It showed that HIIT …

Heart rate variability in acute resistance training: monitoring recovery.
Un nivel suficiente de estímulo de entrenamiento y una adecuada recuperación tras el estrés producido por este facilita la mejora del rendimiento deportivo y la reducción de las lesiones. Sin embargo, la manipulación eficiente de la carga de entrenamiento y de los procesos de recuperación son …

Mechanisms Regulating Resistance Training Mediated Hypertrophy in Human Skeletal Muscle
It is well established that resistance training induces muscle hypertrophy, although the mechanisms and influence of biological sex are unclear. The extent of post-exercise myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS), satellite cells (SC) and dietary amino acids to promote muscle hypertrophy have …

Are the Initiation and Maintenance of a Resistance Training Program Associated with Changes to Dietary Intake and Non-Resistance Training Physical Activity in Adults with Prediabetes?
… likely to meet PA guidelines, particularly the resistance training (RT) recommendation of completing a whole body routine 2x/week. Ideally, individuals would alter their lifestyle in order to meet PA guidelines and habitually consume a healthy diet, to decrease disease risk. However, behavior …

DECODING MUSCLE EXCITATION IN RESISTANCE TRAINING: A HIGH-DENSITY SEMG APPROACH
Resistance training (RT) is a primary stimulus for neuromuscular and structural adaptations, yet the characterization of muscle excitation during RT remains limited by methodological constraints. Traditional surface electromyography (sEMG) provides a global estimate of muscle activity but lacks the …

The effect of resistance training interventions in overweight and obese children
… prevention of obesity in children, the use of resistance training in youth and health promotion is a fairly new concept, and one that needs further study.

Effects of Resistance Training on aged Skeletal Muscle and Mitochondrial Function
… capacity, increased adiposity, and insulin resistance. The rising number of individuals aged 65+ will increase demands on health care and health care costs, possibly leading to inadequate public resources and less care for the aged. This large societal impact, coupled with the aging of our …

THE EFFECTS OF TAGteach™ ON THE EXECUTION OF RESISTANCE TRAINING MOVEMENTS
Exercise programs that utilize resistance training, a specialized type of conditioning that provides stress (resistive loads) to the muscles, have appealed to athletes and recreational participants alike, due to its documented benefits for performance and overall health. Teaching the correct form …

Dietary Supplementation & Resistance Training Programs Designed to Promote Increases in Muscle Mass
… that involved 10-11 weeks of structured RE training and matched groups that supplemented their diets with whey protein (WP), creatine monohydrate (CrM) and/or carbohydrate (CHO) (separately and in various combinations as well as at strategic times of the day). Assessments included body …

Effects of load and fatigue during unilateral resistance training on neuromuscular adaptations.
El entrenamiento de fuerza (EF) unilateral aumenta la fuerza voluntaria máxima tanto del músculo entrenado, como del músculo homologo contralateral no entrenado, un fenómeno conocido como efecto cruzado. El efecto cruzado surge de adaptaciones neurales en el hemisferio no entrenado como …
