摘要: Focuses on a study which determined if high-intensity resistance training performed once per week would be sufficient to maintain skeletal muscle strength and size in older men following resistance training. Methodology; Overview of the resistance training program; Results of the study....
AIM: The aim of this study was to compare muscle strength and thickness, body composition and dietary intake between master strength athletes and controls. METHODS: Cross-sectional comparison between: 1) young control men (25.7+/-3.4 y; n=10); 2) middle-aged master athletes (52.1+/-4.7 y...
Your training must be calculated if you hope to build strength and size at the same time. Here's the ultimate workout split to achieve both.
improving your technique in an exercise can lead to gains in strength and muscle size without necessarily adding reps or weight. Keep in mind whenever adding a new exercise into your routine, it will take your body a few weeks to get used to the new challenge and nail down the technique....
Muscle strength (i.e. one repetition maximum or 1RM) and hypertrophy (i.e. muscle thickness [MT] via ultrasonography) were measured at pre-test and after 8-wks of training. Both groups increased 1RM bench-press (p≤0.0001): ISS (23.4%, CIdiff: 4.3kg to 11.1kg) and TST (22.2%, ...
In African-American children aged 5 to 17 years with and without type SS sickle cell disease (SCD-SS), dominant hand maximal handgrip strength, peak power, and plantar flexion isometric maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque were compared with adjustments for body size and composition.
