“…One study reported that the crosssectional area (CSA) of the biceps brachii muscle increased by ~11% following a training protocol consisting of three sets of 10 repetition maximum (~75% 1-RM) for 8 exercises during a 12 week period (33 sessions) [McCall et al, 1999]. Others have investigated the effects of combinations of different intensity resistance exercises on muscular adaptations [Goto et al, 2004]. Subjects performed nine sets of exercises at varied intensities (from 40 to 80% 1-RM), during a designed hypertrophy phase (6-week).…”

“…Traditional resistance training prgrams often report significant increases in both muscle hypertrophy and strength of 5 to 39% depending on the type of training (dynamic), the mode of testing (isokinetic, isometric, or dynamic), and duration of training [Goto et al, 2004]. However, there is convincing evidence in the literature to indicate that similar benefits in terms of strength improvements can be achieved using much lower training intensities and durations of training if combined with the KAATSU training technique (Table 1).…”

“…A number of studies have demonstrated that low-intensity resistance exercise (i.e., 20% 1-RM) combined with vascular restriction (KAATSU) can elicit increases in muscle size Beekley et al, 2005;Takarada et al, 2002;Takarada et al, 2000a] and strength [Shinohara et al, 1998;Takarada et al, 2002] to a similar or even greater extent then traditional resistance training utilizing intensities greater than the recommended 65% 1-RM threshold [Goto et al, 2005;Goto et al, 2004;McCall et al, 1999]. Although the precise mechanisms underlying these adaptations remain unclear, reducing the relative intensity of resistance training to 20% 1-RM and including vascular restriction would have obvious advantages for individuals who may exhibit limited strength or health-related risks with higher resistance training loads, such as older adults and diseased or injured patients.…”

Skeletal muscle adapts to a progressive overload, but the response can vary between different modes and intensities of exercise. Generally, a minimal threshold intensity of 65% of the one repetition maximum (1-RM) is needed to elicit muscle hypertrophy; however, recent studies have challenged this hypothesis and have provided evidence that low-intensity training (LIT) combined with vascular restriction (KAATSU) may also elicit increases in muscle size and strength. The physiological aspects of applying vascular restriction during exercise are not fully understood and may be explained by several factors. Examining the results of previous studies may help elucidate the factors responsible for the adaptations associated with vascular restriction in humans. Therefore, the objectives of this review are to summarize current knowledge regarding the physiological adaptations of skeletal muscle after low-intensity exercise combined with vascular restriction, the different training protocols used to elicit adaptations, and suggested areas for future research.

“…Additionally, the TV has been suggested as a variable that directly influences the hypertrophic results. Therefore, training methods that elevate the TV tend to provide better responses on the increase of muscle mass 21,22 . A relevant effect observed in our study was that the increase in the maximum number of repetitions and the TV was not reflected in the RPE values.…”

-Aim: the aim was to investigate the influence of a maximal isometric muscle action of the elbow extensors on the contralateral dynamic task of the elbow flexors. Methods: Seventeen recreationally trained men (23.3 ± 4.9 yrs, BMI: 24.8 ± 2.2 Kg/m²) underwent two randomized different testing sessions separated by one week. In the control session (CON) all subjects performed a maximum number of repetitions test (RMs) at 75%1RM using the right elbow flexors. The experimental session (EXP) was similar to the CON; however, all subjects were instructed to perform RMs at 75%1RM by using the right elbow flexors and maintaining the maximal voluntary contraction of the left elbow extensors during the test. RMs, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and training volume (TV) were measured and compared between sessions. Results: The EXP showed a significant 10.4% increase on the RMs (13.8 vs. 12.5, p < 0.001, d = 0.44) and 12.1% increase in TV (238.0 vs. 212.4 kg, p < 0.001, d = 0.43) than CON. No differences were observed for RPE between sessions. Conclusion: The maximum voluntary contraction of the left elbow extensors increased the RMs of the contralateral elbow flexors, reflecting a higher TV, and no differences in the RPE. Our results suggest that the investigated method may be a viable and practical alternative to increase the acute strength performance of elbow flexors when using submaximal loads.

This study aimed to assess the effects of strength training on the levels of IGF1 and of muscle strength in neurogenic and miogenic phases of sedentary older. The sample consisted of 24 elderly, voluntary, randomly divided in two groups: the experimental group (EG, n = 13; 65.62 ± 5.36 years) in the control group (CG, n = 11; 71.45 ± 5.72 years). We used the protocol of maximum repetition (Baechle & Groves, 1992) to evaluate muscle strength and maximum quimiluminescence -IMMULITE -DPC MED LAB for the IGF1. We used the Kruskal-Wallis (EG, three times) followed by multiple comparisons of Dunn; the Wilcoxon test (CG, in relation to two times) and the Mann-Whitney test (comparison inter-group). Results showed significant increase (p<0.05) in IGF1 (CGpost x EGweek20 - = 54.29 ng / ml, p = 0009) and in all variables muscle strength (EGweek4 x EGweek20,  = 39.23% and EGpre-test x EGweek20, % = 56.08%, p<0.05). We concluded that training of muscular strength results in significant increase in this variable and serum levels of IGF1, only at the miogenic phase.
