Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the acute effects on
mechanical, neuromuscular, metabolic, and muscle contractile responses to
different set configurations in full-squat (SQ).
Methods: Twenty-two men performed three SQ sessions that consisted of 3 sets
of 12 repetitions with 60% 1RM with 4 minutes inter-set rests: a) traditional se...
This study aimed to analyze the evolution of repetition velocity throughout a set until failure in the bench-press exercise and to analyze the relationships between the percentage of performed repetitions (%Rep) regarding the maximum number of repetitions that can be completed (MNR) and the percentage of velocity loss (VL) in women. Sixteen women p...
Purpose : To compare the acute effects on mechanical, metabolic, neuromuscular, and muscle contractile responses to different velocity-loss (VL) thresholds (20% and 40%) under distinct blood-flow conditions (free [FF] vs restricted [BFR]) in full squat (SQ). Methods : Twenty strength-trained men performed 4 SQ protocols with 60% 1-repetition maximu...
This study compared the effects of four different resistance training (RT) programs that differed in the set configuration (cluster vs. traditional) and the blood flow condition [free-flow (FF) vs. blood flow restriction (BFR)] on strength, neuromuscular and hypertrophic adaptations.
Methods: Forty-two resistance-trained males were randomly assign...
Purpose: To investigate the effects of 3 training volumes in the bench-press exercise performed with interrepetition rest periods, matched for fatigue, on strength gains and neuromuscular adaptations. Methods: Forty-three resistance-trained men were randomized into 3 groups: low (LOW), moderate (MOD), and high (HIG) volume. The intensities increase...
Purpose : This study analyzed the influence of 2 velocity-based training-load prescription strategies (general vs individual load–velocity equations) on the relationship between the magnitude of velocity loss (VL) and the percentage of repetitions completed in the bench-press exercise. Methods : Thirty-five subjects completed 6 sessions consisting...
Purpose: This study explored the effects of 4 bench-press (BP) training programs with different velocity-loss (VL) thresholds (0%, 15%, 25%, and 50%) on strength gains and neuromuscular adaptations. Methods: Forty-six resistance-trained men (22.8 [4.4] y) were randomly assigned into 4 groups that differed in the VL allowed within the set: 0% (VL0),...
The aim of this study was to examine the acute metabolic response, neuromuscular activity, and mechanical performance of different set configurations in bench-press (BP). Twenty-two resistance-trained men performed three resistance exercise protocols consisting of 3 x 12 BP repetitions at 60 % 1RM, with 4 minutes of rest between sets, but with diff...

The aim of this study was to assess whether tensiomyography is a tool sensitive enough to detect peripheral fatigue. Twenty-six strength-trained men were split into two groups: 1) a fatigued group (FG), who performed a full-squat (SQ) standardized warm-up plus 3 x 8 SQs with 75% 1RM with a 5-min rest interval, and 2) a non-fatigued group (NFG), who...

Vastus lateralis muscle size is differently associated with the different regions of the squat force-velocity and load-velocity relationships, rate of force development, and physical performance yo...
Purpose : To examine the effects of 4 programming models (linear [LP], undulating [UP], reverse [RP], and constant [CP]) on physical performance. Methods : Forty-eight moderately strength-trained men were randomly assigned to LP, UP, RP, and CP groups according to their 1-repetition maximum (1RM) in the full-squat exercise (SQ) and followed an 8-we...
Regarding the effects of velocity loss (VL), it has been shown that moderate-high levels of fatigue (>25% VL) are less effective and efficient stimuli than moderate–low levels (<25% VL) to develop strength gains [1,2]. However, using VL as an independent variable raises the problem that resistance training (RT) programs differ in volume and level o...
Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of phenylcapsaicin (PC) supplementation on strength performance and neuromuscular activity in young trained male subjects.
Materials and methods: A total of 25 trained subjects [full-squat (SQ) one repetition maximum (1RM) = 125.6 ± 21.0 kg] were enrolled in this randomized, triple-blinded, crossov...
Background: The aim of this study was to explore the effects
of a low dose (LD) of 0.625 mg and a high dose (HD) of 2.5 mg
of phenylcapsaicin (PC) on full squat (SQ) performance, active
muscle (RPE-AM) and overall body (RPE-OB) ratings of perceived
exertion, muscle damage, protein breakdown, metabolic
response, and 24-h recovery in comparison to pl...
Introduction: It has been shown that higher velocity loss (VL) thresholds (20- 40%)
maximized muscle hypertrophy, while lower VL thresholds (<20%) produced higher strength gains using the same relative load (from 70 to 85 percentage of one- repetition maximum [%1RM]), in the full-squat (SQ) exercise [1]. Nevertheless, using VL as an independent var...
Thirty-six resistance-trained men were randomized in three RT interventions: low (LOW), moderate (MOD), and high (HIG) volume. The three groups trained twice a week (training sessions being 48-72 h apart) for 8 weeksthe SQ exercise, using relative intensities from 70% to 85% 1RM and only one set was conducted per session. The only difference betwee...
The purpose of this study is to provide a force–velocity (F–V) equation that combines a linear and a hyperbolic region, and to compare its derived results to those obtained from linear equations. A total of 10 cross-training athletes and 14 recreationally resistance-trained young men were assessed in the unilateral leg press (LP) and bilateral benc...

Methods: Fifty resistance-trained men were randomly assigned to 4 group...
Purpose:
To compare the effect of 4 velocity-loss (VL) thresholds-0% (VL0), 15% (VL15), 25% (VL25), and 50% (VL50)-on strength gains, neuromuscular adaptations, and muscle hypertrophy during the bench press (BP) exercise using intensities ranging from 55% to 70% of 1-repetition maximum (1RM).

Cluster training is as an effective method to reduce the involuntary decrease in velocity and strength during the set (1). Cluster training is characterized by implementing short rest periods between repetitions within the same set (2). By contrast, this approach requires longer training sessions (3). Therefore, finding balance training protocols t...
