The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks resistance training with different intensity on leukocyte count, IgG, cortisol and lactate concentration in untrained men. 24 untrained male (aged 23.67±1.71 years; height 176.04±5.82 cm; weight 70.78±6.66 kg and body fat 15.82±2.47 percent) were selected and randomly divided into three groups: high-intensity (80%1RM)(n=8), low-...

The aim of this study was to investigate the heart rate variability (HRV) after resistance training with and without vascular occlusion. It was hypothesized that low intensity (LI) with vascular occlusion (LIO) would elicit comparable postexercise HRV responses with that of high intensity (HI) without vascular occlusion. Nine subjects undertook 4 experimental sessions of leg press exercise on d...

the purpose of this study was to determine the intensity influence of perform one set half squat on vertical jump performance and muscle electrical activity in adolescent athletes. the subjects were 12 adolescent boys athletes. the subjects performed one set of dynamic half-squat using low and high intensities (li= low intensity with 40% 1rm, hi= high intensity with 80% 1rm), and a control (c) ...

Abstract Background In current ESC/EAPC guidelines, adding resistance training to endurance is advised for patients with heart failure (HF), but the optimal intensity of unknown (40–80% 1RM advised). Purpose To investigate effects high- vs low-intensity as an adjunct on: aerobic capacity (primary outcome), walking capacity, muscle strength and quality life in HF. Methods Forty HF were consecuti...

Background: Obesity is associated with chronic inflammation in obese subjects, which leads to an increase of inflammatory cytokines. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different intensity circuit resistance training on levels of interleukin 1 beta and interleukin-10 in obese men. Methods: In a semi-experimental trial during May to August 2020, 44 obese men from Tehran city were selecte...

We examined the neuromuscular adaptations following 3 and 6 weeks of 80 vs. 30% one repetition maximum (1RM) resistance training to failure in the leg extensors. Twenty-six men (age = 23.1 ± 4.7 years) were randomly assigned to a high- (80% 1RM; n = 13) or low-load (30% 1RM; n = 13) resistance training group and completed leg extension resistance training to failure 3 times per week for 6 weeks...

The Achilles tendon is one of the strongest and thickest tendons human body. Several studies have reported an immediate decrease in thickness after a single bout resistance training. However, effects blood flow restriction training on not been investigated. purpose this study was to investigate acute different regimens thickness. Fiftytwo participants (27.3 ± 7 years; 177.6 11 cm; 72.2 13.7 kg)...

PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To examine peak volume of oxygen consumption (VO2peak) changes after a high- or low-intensity exercise intervention. DESIGN Experimental trial comparing two randomized intervention groups with control. SETTING An exercise clinic at a university in Australia. SAMPLE 87 prostate cancer survivors (aged 47-80 years) and 72 breast cancer survivors (aged 34-76 years). METHO...

The relationship between oxidative stress and some exercise components of resistance exercise (e.g. intensity, exercise volume) has not been clearly defined. Additionally, the oxidative stress markers may respond differently in various conditions. This study aims to determine the effects of progressive intensity of resistance exercise (RE) on oxidative stress and antioxidants in trained and unt...

The purpose of this randomized, cross-over design study was to examine the effect of three different muscle potentiation protocols on acute changes in muscle architecture and vertical jump performance. Eleven experienced, resistance trained men (25.2±3.6y) completed three potentiation squat protocols using moderate intensity (MI; 75%, 3 sets x 10 repetitions), high intensity (HI; 90%, 3 sets x ...
