“…The strength gains reported in this study were considered large and were similar to other studies of low-volume RT performed to MMF in trained participants (Fisher et al 2013b). Body composition changes in this study, however, were minimal and likely within the measurement error (Fields et al 2001;Collins et al 2004).…”

“…The lumbar extensors appear an under-stimulated muscle group within trunk extension based exercise as evidence by their lack of adaptation from deadlift training (Fisher et al 2013b). However, the inclusion of isolated lumbar extension exercise training does contribute to greater deadlift performance (Fisher et al 2013b). For lower body compound pressing exercise, however, a similar situation appears to present with upper-body exercises.…”

“…Power analysis of research using low volume RT in trained participants (Fisher et al 2013b) was conducted to determine participant numbers (n) using an effect size (ES), calculated using Cohen's d (Cohen 1992) of 1.02 for improvements in strength. Participant numbers were calculated using equations from Whitley and Ball (2002), which revealed that each group required 15 participants to meet required power of 0.8 at an ␣ value of p ≤ 0.05.…”

“…They then rested 60 s between pull-down, abdominal flexion, and lumbar extension ex-3 Whilst the authors accept that volume remains a contentious issue, previous research has reported considerable strength improvements in single-setRT with trained participants (e.g. Fisher et al 2013b) and it unquestionably represents the most time-efficient approach.

Pre-exhaustion (PreEx) training is advocated on the principle that immediately preceding a compound exercise with an isolation exercise can target stronger muscles to pre-exhaust them to obtain greater adaptations in strength and size. However, research considering PreEx training method is limited. The present study looked to examine the effects of a PreEx training programme. Thirty-nine trained participants (male = 9, female = 30) completed 12 weeks of resistance training in 1 of 3 groups: a group that performed PreEx training (n = 14), a group that performed the same exercise order with a rest interval between exercises (n = 17), and a control group (n = 8) that performed the same exercises in a different order (compound exercises prior to isolation). No significant between-group effects were found for strength in chest press, leg press, or pull-down exercises, or for body composition changes. Magnitude of change was examined for outcomes also using effect size (ES). ESs for strength changes were considered large for each group for every exercise (ranging 1.15 to 1.62). In conclusion, PreEx training offers no greater benefit to performing the same exercises with rest between them compared with exercises performed in an order that prioritises compound movements.Key words: strength, muscle, lean mass, body fat.Résumé : Un entraînement physique qui fatigue le muscle au préalable (PreEx) est préconisé selon le principe qu'un exercice isolé précédant immédiatement une chaîne d'exercices permet de cibler des muscles plus forts et de les fatiguer au préalable pour susciter des adaptations supérieures sur le plan de la force et de la grosseur. Toutefois, il y a peu d'études traitant d'entraînement PreEx. Cette étude se propose d'examiner l'effet d'un programme d'entraînement PreEx; trente-neuf sujets dont 9 hommes participent à 12 semaines d'entraînement contre résistance dans l'un des trois groupes : un groupe d'entraînement PreEx (n = 14), un groupe effectuant la série d'exercices selon la même séquence, mais avec un intervalle de repos entre les exercices (n = 17) et un groupe de contrôle (n = 8) effectuant les mêmes exercices, mais selon une séquence différente (la chaîne d'exercices précédant l'exercice isolé). On n'observe pas de différence significative entre les groupes sur le plan de la force au développé couché, au développé des jambes, à la traction vers le bas et de la modification de la masse corporelle. On analyse en outre l'importance du changement par la statistique de l'ampleur de l'effet (« ES »). Les ES de la modification de la force musculaire sont très marquées dans chaque groupe d'exercices (1,15 à 1,62). En conclusion, le programme PreEx ne procure pas plus d'avantages que les mêmes exercices présentés avec un intervalle ou effectués selon une séquence priorisant la chaîne d'exercices.

“…they had no accompanying clinical data [5]), or they were published after our search date [6,7]. The only exception was the article by Nelson et al [8]; this was identified in the database search of CINAHL, Cochrane, Embase, Medline and Pedro, but was not included in our review because neither the title nor the abstract described the relevant outcomes assessed (see ''study selection'' section of our review).…”
