Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the effects of free weight resistance training (RT) versus body mass-based RT on isometric muscular strength, muscle size, and intramuscular fat (IMF) content in the quadriceps femoris over an 8-week period.
  • Healthy individuals (ages 30-64) participated in either group, with both demonstrating increased muscle size but only the body mass-based RT group showing a significant decrease in IMF content.
  • The findings highlight that both training methods can promote muscle hypertrophy, but body mass-based RT may be more effective at reducing fat within the muscle.

Background: In this study, we examined the sex difference of the effect of rest intervals on lifting velocity during resistance exercise.

Methods: Twenty-two trained subjects (11 men and 11 women) were included. Each protocol consisted of 3 sets of 10 repetitions at 70% of 1- repetition maximum (1RM) with rest intervals of 90 s (R90), 150 s (R150), and 240 s (R240) in a crossover design.

Article Synopsis
  • Online exercise via platforms like Zoom was studied to assess its effectiveness on fitness parameters compared to supervised in-person training.
  • The study involved 34 participants who engaged in 8 weeks of body mass-based exercises, showing that both online and in-person training similarly improved strength and muscle mass while reducing blood pressure and arterial stiffness.
  • However, the in-person group demonstrated greater improvements in specific physical tests (chair-stand and sit-and-reach) than the online group, indicating some advantages to face-to-face supervision.
