“…Although our results showed positive effects with multiple sets, some previous studies have suggested that single and multiple sets promote similar gains in strength and muscle hypertrophy (Fleck and Kraemer 2004;Wolfe et al 2004). The effects of a number of sets has been investigated previously, whereas some original studies and a recent meta-analysis have asserted that multiple sets may promote greater strength and muscle hypertrophy gains (Krieger 2009(Krieger , 2010Paulsen et al 2003;Rhea et al 2002), other original studies found no significant difference between single and multiple sets (Hanssen et al 2013;Hass et al 2000). Although there are studies investigating the influence of ST volume (product of the number of sets completed of each exercise and the number of repetitions completed in each set), its effect on short-term ST adaptations remains unclear.…”

“…In a meta-analysis, Rhea, Alvar and Burkett 24 concluded that the use of multiple sets is superior to the simple set to enhance strength gain and muscle mass in resistance exercises. This study has been used to justify the fact that the maintenance of the work volume is imperative to the increase in muscle strength.…”

“…Tradicionalmente aceita-se que, na busca pelo aprimoramento da força, o aumento do número de repetições por série é mais importante que o número de séries por exercício 27,[53][54] . A carga total de trabalho é determinada pelo objetivo do treino.…”
