Effects of training frequency on muscular strength for trained men under volume matched conditions [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background In resistance training, the role of training frequency to increase maximal strength is often debated. However, the limited data available does not allow for clear training frequency “optimization” recommendations. The purpose of this study was

Low-load bench press and push-up induce similar muscle hypertrophy and strength gain
Journal of Exercise Science & Fitness, 2017 Aim: To investigate the effect of push-up training with a similar load of to 40% of 1- repetition maximumal (1RM) bench press on muscle hypertrophy and strength gain in men. Methods: Eighteen male participants (age, 20.2 ± 0.73 years, range: 19−22 years,

Movement velocity can be used to estimate the relative load during the bench press and leg press exercises in older women [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Movement velocity has been proposed as an effective tool to prescribe the load during resistance training in young healthy adults. This study aimed to elucidate whether movement velocity could also be used to estimate the relative load (i.e., %

Elbow Joint Fatigue and Bench-Press Training [PDF]
Journal of Athletic Training, 2014 Context:Bench-press exercises are among the most common form of training exercise for the upper extremity because they yield a notable improvement in both muscle strength and muscle endurance. The literature contains various investigations into the effects of different bench-press positions on the degree of muscle activation.
