The Acute Neuromuscular Responses to Cluster Set Resistance Training: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: BackgroundCluster sets (CSs) are a popular resistance training (RT) strategy categorised by short rest periods implemented between single or groups of repetitions. However, evidence supporting the effectiveness of CSs on acute intra-session neuromuscular performance is still equivocal.ObjectiveThe objective of this investigation was to determine the efficacy of a single session of CSs to attenuate losses in force, velocity and power compared to traditional set (TS) training.MethodsScreening consisted of a syst… Show more

“…The results regarding the loss of velocity suggest that RRS may reduce the loss of velocity throughout the training sessions in comparison with the TS protocol. This result is not surprising since the literature is quite consistent about the beneficial effect of more frequent pauses during RT in order to improve mechanical performance [7]. In addition, based on the relationship between the velocity loss and blood lactate and ammonia production after a resistance exercise [34], we may suggest that both training programs differ, not only in the accumulation of repetitions performed at low velocities but also in metabolic responses.…”

“…However, light to moderate intensity (≤60% of maximum) should be used ( Byrne et al, 2016 ; Fragala et al, 2019 ; Radaelli et al, 2019 , Radaelli et al, 2018 ), as it provides greater muscle power production during the exercise ( Strand et al, 2019 ). In addition, a lower number of repetitions per set and longer rest interval are indicated, as it provides less reduction in performance during the subsequent sets ( Latella et al, 2019 ; Tufano et al, 2016 ). Likewise traditional resistance exercise, high-velocity exercise is important for frail individuals and should be used if possible ( Fragala et al, 2019 ).…”

“…In the cluster design, a traditional set (i.e. continuous repetitions) is organized with rest intervals between repetitions ( Latella et al, 2019 ; Ramirez-Campillo et al, 2018 ; Tufano et al, 2017 ). For example, a continuous set of 8 repetitions can be divided into 8 (or less) blocks of 1 (or more) repetition with an interval of 30–45 s after each repetition ( Latella et al, 2019 ; Ramirez-Campillo et al, 2018 ; Tufano et al, 2017 ).…”
