“…Specifically, two studies conducted in PWH have shown that, in general, elastic bands provide similar muscle activation to other traditional methods, such as machines [10] or free weights [11], in lower and upper limbs, respectively. However, there are no other studies using elastic resistance in PWH, while their use in other chronic pathologies is more common [13]. For example, how muscle activation levels vary by increasing elastic resistance has not been analyzed.…”

In people with haemophilia (PWH), elastic band training is considered an optimal option, even though the literature is scarce. The aim was to evaluate normalized electromyographic amplitude (nEMG), rate of perceived exertion (RPE), pain, tolerability, and possible adverse effects during the knee extension exercise using multiple elastic resistance intensities in PWH. During a single session, 14 severe PWH undergoing prophylactic treatment performed knee extensions without resistance and with different intensity levels of elastic resistance. nEMG was measured for the knee extensors and participants rated their RPE, tolerability and pain intensity after each condition. Patients had to report the possible adverse effects after the session. In most of the cases, an nEMG increase is only evidenced after increasing the resistance by two to three levels. Significant associations were found between RPE and the nEMG (ρ = 0.61), as well as between the elastic resistance level and nEMG (ρ = 0.69) and RPE (ρ = 0.71). All conditions were generally tolerated, without increased pain, and no adverse effects were reported. A wide variety of elastic resistance intensities during the knee extension are safe, tolerated, and do not increase knee pain in the majority of severe PWH undergoing prophylactic treatment.

“…The quality of included studies was rated ≤5 points in seven trials [28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and ≥6 points in eight other studies [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. The sample size of the included studies varied between 12 and 48 subjects and was calculated a priori in 7 out of 15 trials [29,33,34,36,37,41,42]. The attrition rate was ≤10% in four studies [28,35,36,40], between 11% and 30% in eight studies [29][30][31]33,34,37,38,41], and ≥30% in three studies [32,39,42].…”

“…There were 13 studies that adopted RT programs for both the upper and lower limbs [28,29,[31][32][33][34][36][37][38][39][40][41][42], while two studies exercised only the lower limbs [30,35]. In two trials, the training program was designed to enhance the peripheral muscle endurance [36,42], imposing a moderate-fast velocity of contraction, whereas two studies focused on the muscle power, giving emphasis to the explosive movement performed during the concentric phase of the exercise [30,35].…”

Isolated Resistance Training Programs to Improve Peripheral Muscle Function in Outpatients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases: A Systematic Review

et al. 2021

This systematic review aims to establish which isolated resistance training (RT) programs have been used in outpatients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and their impact on all aspects of peripheral skeletal muscle function. Electronic databases were systematically searched up to June 2021. The eligibility criteria were: (1) randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of supervised and isolated RT programs in outpatients with COPD and (2) RT programs lasting 8–12 weeks, (3) including at least one outcome measure related to trainable muscle characteristics. Initially, 6576 studies were identified, whereas 15 trials met the inclusion criteria. All the included trials reported that isolated RT improved both upper and lower limbs’ maximal strength. Muscle endurance and power also increased after RT but received less attention in the analysis. Furthermore, few studies assessed the effect of RT on muscle mass and cross-sectional area, reporting only limited improvement. Isolated RT programs carried out 2–3 days a week for 8–12 weeks improved skeletal muscle function in individuals with COPD. The RT program should be specifically focused to the trainable muscle characteristic to be improved. For this reason, we further encourage the introduction of a detailed assessment of muscle function and structure during the pulmonary rehabilitation practice.
