Non-Specific Strength Changes Between High- and Low-Load Isotonic Resistance Training: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Open
Background In comparisons between high- and low-load isotonic resistance training, it has become common to include non-specific strength tests (e.g., isometric and isokinetic strength tests), presumably in attempt to minimize the influence…

The acute muscular response following a novel form of pulsed direct current stimulation (Neubie) or traditional resistance exercise. Open
Both conditions showed increased SOR, and decreased ISO for up to 48h, with MT increased for up to 24h. MT remained elevated in TRAD at 48h. Neubie training might be effective for individuals who are looking to experience lower RPE respons…

Mechanisms mediating increased endurance following high- and low-load training with and without blood flow restriction Open
Objectives: To determine if different mechanisms, i.e., changes in one-repetition maximum (1RM) strength (Δ1RM) or vascular conductance (ΔVC), mediate changes in endurance (ΔEND) following training with 70% 1RM (70/0), 15% 1RM (15/0), and …

An integrated application of practical blood flow restriction in resistance trained individuals Open
Practical blood flow restriction (PBFR) training has been used as a training technique to induce muscular strength and hypertrophy gains while utilizing lighter loads [≤ 40% one repetition maximum (1RM)]. It is unclear if PBFR can be incor…

Is “periodization programming” periodization or programming? Open
Within the literature examining the periodization of resistance training, "periodization" and "programming" are often confused and used interchangeably. This has resulted in the drawing of inferences regarding the efficacy of periodization…

Limb Occlusion Pressure: A Method to Assess Changes in Systolic Blood Pressure Open
Our findings suggest that changes in limb occlusion pressure measured by hand-held Doppler track similarly to traditional measurements of brachial systolic blood pressure following isometric knee extension exercise.

The Generality of Strength Adaptation Open
The generality of strength suggests that a “strong” individual will typically exhibit higher values of strength across a wide range of strength tasks for a given muscle relative to their weaker counterpart. This concept is often extended t…

Muscle Adaptations to High-Load Training and Very Low-Load Training With and Without Blood Flow Restriction Open
An inability to lift loads great enough to disrupt muscular blood flow may impair the ability to fatigue muscles, compromising the hypertrophic response. It is unknown what level of blood flow restriction (BFR) pressure, if any, is necessa…

The cardiovascular adaptations to repeated “Strength Snacks” Open
A training program consisting of working up to a one-repetition maximum (1RM) results in similar strength adaptations as traditional resistance exercise, while also decreasing the volume of work necessary to achieve this outcome. However, …
