Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the effects of an 8-week resistance training program comparing low-load and high-load workouts, with and without reaching muscle failure, on muscle strength and hypertrophy in untrained men.
- Results indicated that high-load training, whether to failure or not, significantly increased muscle strength and quadriceps size more than low-load training.
- The findings suggest that achieving muscle failure is more crucial for muscle growth during low-load training, while high-load training does not benefit further from this approach.

Blood flow restriction does not attenuate short-term detraining-induced muscle size and strength losses after resistance training with blood flow restriction. J Strength Cond Res 35(8): 2082-2088, 2021-After a short-term resistance training with blood flow restriction (BFR), we investigated the effects of 12 days of detraining (DET), without an exercise stimulus, on quadriceps cross-sectional area (QCSA) and muscle strength (1 repetition maximum [1RM]), with 1 leg receiving daily intermittent BFR during DET vs.
