This study investigated the effects of increasing previous resistance training (RT) weekly set volume by 30% (G30) and 60% (G60) on muscle hypertrophy and strength. Fifty-five resistance-trained men were randomly allocated to the experimental groups, whereas 29 completed the study, as follows: control group (CON): = 10, G30: = 10, and G60: = 9. Participants underwent a lower body RT program twice a week for 8 wk.
