Journal ArticleDOI

Muscle activation during three sets to failure at 80 vs. 30 % 1RM resistance exercise

TL;DR: Investigating electromyographic amplitude, EMG mean power frequency, exercise volume, total work, iEMG, and TUCL during, and muscle cross-sectional area before and after 3 sets to failure of leg extension exercise found muscle activation was greater at 80 % 1RM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuromuscular Adaptations After 2 and 4 Weeks of 80% Versus 30% 1 Repetition Maximum Resistance Training to Failure

TL;DR: Investigating the hypertrophic, strength, and neuromuscular adaptations to 2 and 4 weeks of resistance training at 80 vs. 30% 1 repetition maximum (1RM) in untrained men found disparate strength adaptations were difficult to explain because they were subtle and similar for the 80 and30% 1RM groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reliability and relationships among handgrip strength, leg extensor strength and power, and balance in older men

TL;DR: LERTD and HGRFD weren't reliable and shouldn't be used as outcome variables in older men and handgrip strength should only be used to describe upper body strength or functionality, which may compliment isometric assessments of lower body strength, which were reliable and related to balance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relative Contributions of Strength, Anthropometric, and Body Composition Characteristics to Estimated Propulsive Force in Young Male Swimmers

TL;DR: It is suggested that age-related increases in HT and FFM, as well as training for increases in FLX and EXT strength may improve propulsive force and swimming performance in young male swimmers.
