TL;DR: In order to stimulate further adaptation toward a specific training goal(s), progression in the type of resistance training protocol used is necessary and emphasis should be placed on multiple-joint exercises, especially those involving the total body.

Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamentals of resistance training: progression and exercise prescription.
TL;DR: A careful system of goal targeting, exercise testing, proper exercise technique, supervision, and optimal exercise prescription all contribute to the successful implementation of a resistance training program.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormonal Responses and Adaptations to Resistance Exercise and Training
TL;DR: It appears that this acute response to resistance exercise is more critical to tissue growth and remodelling than chronic changes in resting hormonal concentrations, as many studies have not shown a significant change during resistance training despite increases in muscle strength and hypertrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muscular adaptations in response to three different resistance-training regimens: specificity of repetition maximum training zones.

TL;DR: Low and intermediate RM training appears to induce similar muscular adaptations, at least after short-term training in previously untrained subjects, and both physical performance and the associated physiological adaptations are linked to the intensity and number of repetitions performed, and thus lend support to the strength–endurance continuum.
