Associations of Physical Activity with One-Year Functional and Cognitive Trajectories Following High-Speed Resistance Training in Older Adults

Background: Engaging in regular physical activity (PA) after completing structured exercise programmes may contribute to sustaining functional and cognitive gains in older adults over the long term. This study investigated whether different levels of PA during the one-year follow-up were associated with the preservatio...

Elbow Flexor Adaptations to Failure Versus Repetitions-in-Reserve Training: A Unilateral Within-Participant Study in Resistance-Trained Adults

This study compared elbow flexor hypertrophy and maximal strength adaptations after eight weeks of resistance training performed either to momentary muscular failure or with 1–3 repetitions in reserve (RIR). Nineteen resistance-trained adults completed a unilateral within-participant protocol in which one arm trained t...

Bioelectrical Responses to Resistance Training Performed to Momentary Failure or with Repetitions in Reserve: A Within-Subject Analysis of Phase Angle and Impedance Components

Findings are limited to segmental limb-level bioelectrical estimates and should not be interpreted as localized responses of the specifically trained muscles.
