“…They also completed the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire Plus and a health history questionnaire to determine if it was safe for them to exercise (Bredin et al, 2013). Subjects reported their activity level by answering two questions in accordance with Kwon et al (2018): "Do you lift weights?" and "How long have you been lifting weights?".…”

Although sex differences in body composition are well established, differences in the relationship between adiposity and muscular strength remain elusive. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine sex differences in the relationship between muscular strength and adiposity in adults. Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WtHR), skinfold, and bench press were assessed on 140 males and females aged 18-40 years. Normalized strength (NS) was determined by dividing bench press one-repetition maximum by body mass. Using linear regression, positive associations between NS and BMI were found in males [p=0.003, parameter estimate (PE)=0.051] and females (p=0.010, PE=0.021); inverse associations between NS and body fat percentage were found in males (p<0.001, PE=-0.035) and females (p=0.015, PE=-0.008); an inverse association between NS and WC was observed only amongst females (p=0.037, PE=-0.011); and no significant associations were found between NS and (WtHR) for either sex. Although the current study design does not permit determining causality, the findings suggest that resistance training may be more effective in reducing abdominal adiposity in females.

Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (JOHSK) publishes research articles in the fields of Health, Sports, and Kinesiology. JOHSK is an open access and peer-reviewed research journal that is published by the International Organization for Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (IOHSK). The Journal of Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (JOHSK) publishes four times a year. The JOHSK provides a platform for the researchers, academicians, professionals, practitioners, and students to impart and share knowledge. JOHSK welcomes and acknowledges high-quality theoretical and empirical original research papers, case studies, review papers, literature reviews, book reviews, conceptual framework, analytical and simulation models, technical notes from researchers, academicians, professionals, practitioners, and students from all over the world. Work must be of a quality and context that would be of interest to an international readership. Manuscripts for special issues and individual papers can be on any contemporary health, sports, and kinesiology topics of international interest. Research findings of high-quality research involving any discipline and methodology related to Health, Sports, and Kinesiology will be welcome. However, the journal's aim and scope are to ensure it publishes high quality research that could potentially inform research. The research findings do not have to be comparative
