“…Furthermore, VO 2 max tended to increase by 5 % (0.14 % per session) after the training. On the other hand, Vincent et al [49] reported that a single set of RT at 80 % 1RM (3 days per week) for 24 weeks elicited significant increases in VO 2 max (20 %). These results suggest that training volume is not largely related to the improvement of VO 2 max for older people.…”

“…One study [49] investigated the effects of different RT intensities on VO 2 max in older subjects. Increases in VO 2 max were not significantly different (20 and 24 %, respectively) between high-intensity (80 % 1RM) and moderate-intensity (50 % 1RM) groups following 24 weeks of RT.…”

It is an undeniable fact that resistance training (RT) is a potent stimulus for muscle hypertrophy and strength gain, but it is less understood whether RT can increase maximal aerobic capacity (VO 2 max). The purpose of this brief review is to discuss whether or not RT enhances VO 2 max in young (20-40 years) and older subjects (>60 years). Only 3 of 17 studies involving young subjects have indicated significant increases in VO 2 max following RT, while six of nine studies in older subjects have reported significant improvements in VO 2 max following RT. There was a significant negative correlation between the initial VO 2 max and RT-induced change in VO 2 max. This result suggests that RT-induced increase in VO 2 max is dependent upon the subject's initial VO 2 max. The RT-induced increase in VO 2 max may be elicited when their initial relative VO 2 max is lower than 25 ml/kg/min for older subjects and lower than 40 ml/kg/min for young subjects. Thus, RT can be expected to improve concurrently both muscular and cardiovascular fitnesses within a single mode of RT when young and old persons have initially low fitness levels.

“…Foram realizadas de oito a dez repetições para cada exercício, as cargas foram adequadas na primeira, terceira e sétima semana de treinamento; a velocidade do movimento foi de baixa a moderada intensidade, sempre sob controle; a respiração foi orientada para ser contínua durante cada repetição, expirando ao se levantar a carga e inspirando ao se abaixar a carga 14 . Cada sessão do treinamento foi composta pelos seguintes exercícios: leg press (extensão do quadril e extensão do joelho), mesa extensora (extensão dos joelhos); flexão dos joelhos (com caneleiras na posição ortostática), abdução e adução de quadril.…”

RESUMOIntrodução: O envelhecimento traz várias modificações, entre as quais o declínio progressivo das funções fisiológicas do organismo. Tanto o treino de força quanto um programa de resistência aeróbica são importantes para evitar o declínio funcional associado à idade. Objetivo: Avaliar os efeitos de um programa de treinamento combinado de força e resistência aeróbica sobre a força de preensão manual, a massa muscular, a resistência e potência aeróbica de idosas. Métodos: Trinta e cinco mulheres (65,7 ± 6,68 anos) foram divididas em três grupos: treinamento combinado (TC; n = 15), treinamento de força (TF; n = 10) e treinamento aeróbico (TA; n = 10). Cada grupo treinou duas vezes por semana durante oito semanas, sendo que o grupo TC teve treinamento de força e aeróbico uma vez por semana. Foi utilizado o teste estatístico ANOVA e t de Student, com p ≤ 0,05. Resultados: Foi possível verificar melhoras significativas (p ≤ 0,05) dos valores de VO 2pico no momento da determinação do limiar anaeróbico e aumento na força de preensão manual em todos os grupos pesquisados, assim como dos valores de massa muscular do vasto lateral (p ≤ 0,05). Conclusão: Os resultados sugerem que um programa de treinamento combinado é tão eficaz para ocasionar aumentos de massa muscular, potência e resistência aeróbica de idosas, quanto o treinamento de resistência aeróbica ou força realizado duas vezes por semana, organizados separadamente.Descritores: saúde do idoso; força muscular; treinamento de resistência; exercício. ABSTRACT Introduction: Aging brings several modifications, including the progressive decline of physiological functions of the body. Both strength training and an aerobic endurance program are important to avoid functional decline

eak aerobic exercise capacity, measured as peak oxygen uptake (peak VO 2 ), is a powerful predictor of mortality among cardiac patients. 1 Despite having lower fitness at baseline, women generally do not improve peak VO 2 as much as men in phase 2 cardiac rehabilitation (CR). 2,3 In a prior study of 1789 patients performing standard CR training, women improved by a mean (SD) 0.3 (0.4) L/min and men improved by a mean (SD) 0.4 (0.5) L/min (14% vs 19%, respectively). 3 High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been shown to be more effective in increasing peak VO 2 compared with moderate intensity continuous training (MCT). However, benefits with HIIT for women are unclear because most studies of HIIT have included primarily men. 4,5 Additionally, resistance training (RT) alone has been shown to improve leg strength and walking endurance in older individuals. 6 The purpose of this study is to examine the combination of HIIT and more intensive RT to maximize peak VO 2 for women in CR. We hypothesized that increases in peak VO 2 (L/min) would be greater among women performing HIIT and additional leg strength training compared with standard MCT. MethodsThis was a randomized clinical study performed from July 2017 to February 2020 and approved by the University of Vermont Institutional Review Board. A detailed protocol is available in Supplement 1. Written informed consent was obtained by all participants.Women entering CR at a community-based cardiac rehabilitation program affiliated with a university hospital in IMPORTANCE Despite lower baseline fitness levels, women in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) do not typically improve peak aerobic exercise capacity (defined as peak oxygen uptake [peak VO 2 ]) compared with men in CR. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and intensive lower extremity resistance training (RT) compared with standard moderate intensity continuous training (MCT) on peak VO 2 among women in CR. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This randomized clinical trial conducted from July 2017 to February 2020 included women from a community-based cardiac rehabilitation program affiliated with a university hospital in Vermont. A total of 56 women (mean [SD] age, 65 [11] years; range 43-98 years) participating in CR enrolled in the study.INTERVENTIONS MCT (70% to 85% of peak heart rate [HR]) with moderate intensive RT or HIIT (90% to 95% of peak HR) along with higher-intensity lower extremity RT 3 times per week over 12 weeks. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURESThe primary outcome was the between-group difference in change in peak VO 2 (L/min) from baseline to 12 weeks. RESULTSPeak VO 2 increased to a greater degree in the HIIT group (+23%) than in the control group (+7%) (mean [SD] increase, 0.3 [0.2] L/min vs 0.1 [0.2] L/min; P = .03). Similarly, the change in leg strength was greater in the HIIT-RT group compared with the control group (mean [SD] increase, 15.3 [0.3] kg vs 6.4 [1.1] kg; P = .004). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCEAn exercise protocol combining HIIT and intensive lower ex...
