TLDR
This approach to determine 1RM strength values produced rapid lifting technique familiarization resulting in a need of 2 to 3 test sessions to achieve consistent 1RM measurements in untrained older women.Abstract:
Strength is a fundamental component of physical fitness, and therefore should be precisely assessed The purpose of this study was to analyze the number of testing sessions required to achieve consistent 1 repetition maximum (1RM) strength measurements in untrained older women Forty-five untrained older women were measured for 1RM in bench press machine (BP), leg extension (LE) machine, and free weight arm curl (AC) Reliability coefficients for trials 1 and 2 for BP (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0973) and LE (ICC = 0976) were higher than for AC (ICC = 0953) Percent change from trial 1 to 2 for BP (35 ± 109%) and AC (38 ± 81%) was less than for LE (54 ± 62%), but all were significant increases between trials (p 005) in the third trial for BP (00 ± 00%), LE (12 ± 30%) and AC (27 ± 59%) Reliability coefficients rose for BP and LE (ICC = 0999) and AC (ICC = 0963) when a third trial was performed Bland and Altman plotting showed very small bias and limits of agreement (LoA) for both the exercises (BP: bias = 0 kg, limits of agreement = 0 kg; LE: bias = -016 kg, LoA = 221 kg; AC: bias = -011 kg, LoA = 172 kg) This approach to determine 1RM strength values produced rapid lifting technique familiarization resulting in a need of 2 to 3 test sessions to achieve consistent 1RM measurements in untrained older womenread more

Test–Retest Reliability of the One-Repetition Maximum (1RM) Strength Assessment: a Systematic Review
TL;DR: The 1RM test generally has good to excellent test–retest reliability, regardless of resistance training experience, number of familiarization sessions, exercise selection, part of the body assessed (upper vs. lower body), and sex or age of participants.

TL;DR: It is suggested that 8weeks of RT promote improvements on inflammatory levels, and the lipid and glycemic profile in obese older women, and further support the important role of RT in healthy aging.

TL;DR: A 12-week resistance training intervention effectively improved sarcopenia, body fat %, strength and quality of life in hypogonadal prostate cancer patients, but did not change MetS or physical function.

Distinctive Effects of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise Modes on Neurocognitive and Biochemical Changes in Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment.
TL;DR: It is suggested that in older adults with aMCI, not only aerobic but also resistance exercise is effective with regard to increasing neurotrophins, reducing some inflammatory cytokines, and facilitating neurocognitive performance.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that concurrent strength and endurance training performed twice a week effectively increases muscular performance and functional capacity in older men, independent of the intra-session exercise sequence.

TL;DR: A wider understanding of reliability and adoption of the typical error as the standard measure of reliability would improve the assessment of tests and equipment in the authors' disciplines.
