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 set (TS): no rest within the set; b) cluster-6 (CS6): a 30 seconds intraset rest after the 6th repetition of each set; and c) cluster-2 (CS2): a 30 seconds intraset rest every 2 repetitions. Mechanical (i.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study analyzes the prevalence of benzodiazepine prescriptions among elderly patients visiting emergency departments in Spain and their impact on short-term health outcomes.
  • - Out of 25,557 patients studied, 30.8% were prescribed benzodiazepines, which were linked to an increased chance of returning to the emergency department but not to higher rates of hospitalization or mortality within 30 days.
  • - The findings suggest that while benzodiazepine use may lead to more frequent ED visits, it does not significantly affect hospitalization rates or mortality in the short term.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examined how different strategies for prescribing training loads (general vs. individual load-velocity equations) affect the relationship between velocity loss (VL) and the number of repetitions completed in the bench press.
  • Thirty-five participants performed bench-press repetitions to failure using various load percentages (40%, 60%, and 80% of their 1-rep max) over six sessions, applying both strategies for adjusting loads.
  • The findings indicate a strong correlation between repetitions completed and VL across different loads; however, variations were more pronounced at higher loads, suggesting that while VL can effectively predict repetitions, caution is needed with heavier weights.

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.
