The Effect Of Rest Interval Length On Upper And Lower Body Exercises In Resistance-Trained Females, Desmond J. Millender, Zachary A. Mang, Jason R. Beam, Rogelio A. Realzola, Leonard Kravitz Oct 2021

The Effect Of Rest Interval Length On Upper And Lower Body Exercises In Resistance-Trained Females, Desmond J. Millender, Zachary A. Mang, Jason R. Beam, Rogelio A. Realzola, Leonard Kravitz

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 14(7): 1178-1191, 2021. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of SHORT (1 min) and LONG (3 min) rest intervals (RI) on total volume lifted (TVL), repetition performance, fatigue index (FI), and blood lactate [La] during upper body (chest press) and lower body (leg press) exercise with low-intensity (75% of a 10-RM) in trained female lifters. Fourteen females (mean ± SD, age = 22.9 ± 5.4 years, training experience = 5.2 ± 2.5 years, height = 166.1 ± 6.9 cm, weight = 61.3 ± 5.1 kg, body fat % = 21.7 ± …


Effects Of Different Types Of Lower Body Resistance Exercise On Upper-Body Strength In Men And Women, With Special Reference To Anabolic Hormones, Johan Jakobsson, Apostolos Theos, Christer Malm Aug 2021

Effects Of Different Types Of Lower Body Resistance Exercise On Upper-Body Strength In Men And Women, With Special Reference To Anabolic Hormones, Johan Jakobsson, Apostolos Theos, Christer Malm

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 14(3): 1052-1069, 2021. Resistance exercise has been shown to induce an acute hormonal response. The purpose of this study was to examine upper-body adaptations and the endocrine response to strength training in men and women when subjected to two different types of lower-body resistance training protocols. Nine males and eight females were assigned to either a Heavy Load (HL) (N = 10) or Mixed Load (ML) (N = 7) training routine three times per week for ten weeks. The HL-group executed low-volume, high-load resistance exercise for both lower and upper-body (4-6 reps at …

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 14(3): 742-755, 2021. Previous studies investigated the effects of foam rolling (FR) on measurements of strength and power. However, the acute effect of FR on muscle thickness (MT) and pressure pain threshold (PPT) after multiple sets of resistance exercise remains to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of one and three minutes of quadriceps FR on muscle thickness (vastus lateralis [VL] and rectus femoris [RF]), pain threshold (VL and RF), and total load lifted (TLL) on multiple sets of knee extension. Nine resistance-trained men (age: 24.8 ± 5.2 …
