...Thus, a velocity-based resistance training (VBRT) approach has been successfully implemented in several studies to monitor training loads [9, 11, 12, 28–30, 32] or to provide a non-invasive and objective measure to quantify the neuromuscular fatigue induced by resistance exercise [13, 24, 25, 29, 30, 34]....

..., submaximal level of effort) has been shown to be an adequate strategy to achieve positive neuromuscular and morphological adaptations (Davies et al. 2016; Folland et al. 2002; Izquierdo-Gabarren et al. 2010; Pareja-Blanco et al. 2017; Sampson and Groeller 2016), and even most importantly, to enhance athletes’ competitive performance (García-Pallarés et al....

...Therefore, in the context of a velocity-based resistance training approach [19, 23], two separate studies were undertaken....

...During RT in isoinertial conditions, and assuming every repetition is performed with maximal voluntary effort, an unintentional decrease in force, velocity and hence power output is observed as fatigue develops and the number of repetitions approaches failure [15, 19, 23]....

...As an alternative, recent research has examined the possibility of using movement velocity as an indicator of relative load during resistance exercise [11, 17, 19, 23, 24]....

...Limiting the analysis to a few slices precludes any definitive conclusion regarding muscle volume changes (Aagaard et al., 2001) or potential differences in regional adaptations (Folland & Williams, 2007; Sanchis-Moysi et al., 2010, 2011, 2012)....

...Resistance training to failure is known to elicit IIX to IIA fiber transformation (Staron et al., 1991; Kraemer et al., 1995; Andersen & Aagaard, 2000; Campos et al., 2002; Andersen et al., 2005, 2010)....

...Interestingly, most studies have shown that the percentage of type IIX fibers is reduced following a RT program based on repetitions to failure (Staron et al., 1991; Andersen & Aagaard, 2000; Campos et al., 2002; Andersen et al., 2005)....

...Since the pioneering study by Delorme (1945), training to muscle failure has been assumed by many as a governing principle of RT (Campos et al., 2002; Drinkwater et al., 2005) and it has become frequent practice in gyms and fitness facilities all across the world, being advocated on the assumption…...
