Resistance training

2017
Abstract Regular participation in well-designed resistance training programmes can offer observable health and fitness benefits to children and adolescents. In addition to increasing muscular strength and power, resistance training can increase bone mineral density, improve cardiovascular risk factors, fuel metabolic health, facilitate ...

Resistance Training

Science of Aging Knowledge Environment, 2004
Sweating and straining through a half-hour on the stair climber rouses the heart, but getting the liver to work harder might be crucial for preventing diabetes. A new study reveals that goading the liver to burn more fat rescues rats from insulin resistance, a defect in sugar processing that usually heralds the disease.

Exercise Order in Resistance Training

Sports Medicine, 2012
Resistance training (RT) is now an integral component of a well rounded exercise programme. For a correct training prescription, it is of the utmost importance to understand the interaction among training variables, such as the load, volume, rest interval between sets and exercises, frequency of sessions, exercise modality, repetition velocity and ...

Resistance training modes

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1995
There is considerable demand for information on the effectiveness of various resistance exercises for improving physical performance, and on how exercise programs must match functional activities to produce the greatest performance gains (training specificity).

Resistive Training and Selected Effects

Medical Clinics of North America, 1985
This article has briefly discussed the various modes and methods of resistive training, and their relative values and effectiveness in achieving desired goals. Evidence has been presented indicating that resistive training can enhance both "physical and emotional fitness as well as reduce some cardiovascular disease risk factors." This may allow a ...

Resistance Training for Health and Performance

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2002
Resistance training is recommended by national health organizations for incorporation into a comprehensive fitness program that includes aerobic and flexibility exercise. Its potential benefits on health and performance are numerous; it has been shown to reduce body fat, increase basal metabolic rate, decrease blood pressure and the cardiovascular ...

Velocity Specificity of Resistance Training

Sports Medicine, 1993
Velocity specificity of resistance training has demonstrated that the greatest strength gains occur at or near the training velocity. There is also evidence that the intent to make a high speed contraction may be the most crucial factor in velocity specificity.

Effects of Resistance Training on Cytokines

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010
It is speculated that exercise training decreases resting levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and C-reactive protein (CRP); reduces body mass and leptin (LP); and increases adiponectin (AD) and insulin sensitivity. This systematic review analyzed the effectiveness of resistance training (RT) longitudinal clinical studies on AD, LP, CRP ...

Efficacy of Instability Resistance Training

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2007
The use of the stability ball as a platform for upper-body resistance training has gained much attention in recent years. However, the efficacy of such training regimens remains largely unstudied. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of platform (unstable vs. stable, stability ball vs. flat bench) on strength and work capacity during
