Resistive Training and Selected Effects
Medical Clinics of North America, 1985This 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 ...

Velocity Specificity of Resistance Training
Sports Medicine, 1993Velocity 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, 2010It 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 ...

Resistance Training and Energy Balance
International Journal of Sport Nutrition, 1998In this brief review we examine the effects of resistance training on energy expenditure. The components of daily energy expenditure are described, and methods of measuring daily energy expenditure are discussed. Cross-sectional and exercise intervention studies are examined with respect to their effects on resting metabolic rate, physical activity ...

Movement Velocity in Resistance Training
Sports Medicine, 2003Guidelines for resistance training include the number of exercises, sets, repetitions, and frequency of training, but only vaguely mention movement velocity. Nevertheless, different velocities imply different performances, i.e. a different number of repetitions or different loads.

Loading using variable resistance devices, where the external resistance changes in line with the force:angle relationship, has been shown to cause greater acute neuromuscular fatigue and larger serum hormone responses. This may indicate a greater potential for adaptation during long-term training.

High Resistance-Training Volume Enhances Muscle Thickness in Resistance-Trained Men
Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research, 2019Abstract Brigatto, FA, Lima, LEdM, Germano, MD, Aoki, MS, Braz, TV, and Lopes, CR. High resistance-training volume enhances muscle thickness in resistance-trained men. J Strength Cond Res 36(1): 22–30, 2022—This study investigated the effects of different volumes of resistance training (RT) (8 weeks of 16, 24, and 32 weekly sets per muscle ...

Cardiovascular adaptations to resistance training
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1988The cross-sectional and longitudinal data available indicate that the following conclusions are warranted concerning the effects of resistance training on the cardiovascular system. Resistance training causes increased absolute left ventricular wall thickness and left ventricular mass.
