“…Although 1RM gains have been similar and, in some cases, higher than those reported in previous high-velocity RT studies with older adults [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ], the total number of repetitions performed in the leg-press and chest-press was inferior compared to all studies. Based on the study duration, sessions per week, sets, and repetitions performed in only one exercise, a total number of repetitions between 600 and 1056 in the chest-press [ 10 , 11 , 36 , 37 , 39 , 41 , 42 ] and leg-press [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ] was performed in these studies, which means ~50% more than the total repetitions performed in our study. Therefore, these results suggest that a low volume is as effective as a high volume for improving 1RM strength in older adults.…”

We analyzed the effects of velocity-monitored resistance training (RT) with a velocity loss of 20% on strength and functional capacity in institutionalized older adults. Thirty-nine participants (78.8 ± 6.7 years) were divided into a control group (CG; n = 20) or an RT group (n = 19). Over 10 weeks, the RT group performed two sessions per week, and the mean velocity of each repetition was monitored in the leg-press and chest-press exercises at 40–65% of one-repetition maximum (1RM). The set ended when the participants reached a velocity loss of 20%. The CG maintained their daily routine. At pre- and post-test, both groups were assessed in the 1RM leg-press, 1RM chest-press, handgrip strength, medicine ball throw (MBT), walking speed, and sit-to-stand (STS). At baseline, we did not find significant differences between groups. After 10 weeks, we observed significant differences (p < 0.001–0.01) between groups in the 1RM leg-press, 1RM chest-press, MBT-1 kg, and STS. The RT group performed a total number of repetitions of 437.6 ± 66.1 in the leg-press and 296.4 ± 78.9 in the chest-press. Our results demonstrate that velocity loss effectively prescribes the volume in older adults and that a threshold of 20% improves strength-related variables in this population.

“…As a main limitation, it is remarkable that handgrip strength was the only physical tests that did not reach a significant change, which may be a consequence of the inadequate intensity and volume in upper body exercises (Richardson et al, 2019) or because of the short duration of the intervention. Furthermore, it must be acknowledged that these are partial results from an ongoing randomized control trial (Courel-Ibáñez & Pallarés, 2019).…”

En este estudio se determinaron los efectos de un programa de ejercicio multicomponente individualizado de 4 semanas (Vivifrail) sobre la fragilidad física y la discapacidad funcional en adultos mayores que viven en hogares de ancianos. Catorce personas institucionalizadas (edad 81,7 ± 9,7 años) se ofrecieron voluntarios para completar 4 semanas del programa de ejercicio individualizado Vivifrail (5 días a la semana) de acuerdo con su nivel inicial: A, discapacidad; B, fragilidad; C, pre-fragilidad y D, robusto. Los entrenamientos fueron dirigidos por educadores físico-deportivos titulados. Once participantes completaron las 4 semanas con niveles muy altos de asistencia (96%). La capacidad funcional (puntuación del SPPB) mejoró en todos los participantes (+46,6%, p < 0,001, ES = 0,79) y tests: levantarse de la silla (45,6% faster, p = 0,003, ES = 1,43), velocidad de marcha 4 m (19,3% faster, p = 0,033, ES = 0,38) y test Timed Up-and-Go (23,2% faster, p = 0,004, ES = 0,35). La discapacidad y sarcopenia disminuyeron significativamente (SARC-F, p = 0,026, ES = 0,59; Lawton index, p = 0,013, ES = 0,87). Las personas que empezaron con niveles de discapacidad (A), fragilidad (B) y pre-fragilidad (C) mostraron mejores resultados. Seis de los nueve participantes que comenzaron con fragilidad física o pre-fragilidad (66,7%) revirtieron esta condición tras la intervención. Además, el 33% de los participantes que fueron incapaces de realizar las pruebas funcionales (sentarse, levantase y caminar) al inicio, pudieron completarlas tras la intervención. Estos importantes beneficios en tan poco tiempo (4 semanas) podrían estar relacionados con tres elementos clave: individualización del programa, frecuencia diaria y motivación del entrenamiento dirigido.

Neste estudo, foram determinados os efeitos de um programa individualizado de exercícios multicomponentes de quatro semanas (Vivifrail) sobre a fragilidade física e a incapacidade funcional em idosos residentes em casas de repouso. Quatorze indivíduos institucionalizados (idade 81,7 ± 9,7 anos) se voluntariaram para completar 4 semanas do programa de exercícios individualizado Vivifrail (5 dias por semana), de acordo com seu nível inicial: A, incapacidade; B, fragilidade; C, pré-fragilidade e D, robusto. Os treinamentos foram conduzidos por educadores físicos e esportivos certificados. Onze participantes completaram as 4 semanas com níveis muito altos de participação (96%). A capacidade funcional (escore SPPB) melhorou em todos os participantes (+46,6%, p < 0,001, ES = 0,79) e testes: levantar da cadeira (45,6% faster, p = 0,003, ES = 1,43), velocidade de caminhada 4m (19.3% faster, p = 0,033, ES = 0,38) e 6 m (19,3% faster, p = 0,033, ES = 0,38) e teste Timed Up and Go (23,2% faster, p = 0,004, ES = 0,35). Incapacidade e sarcopenia diminuíram significativamente (SARC-F, p = 0,026, ES = 0,59; Lawton index, p = 0,013, ES = 0,87). Pessoas que iniciaram com níveis de incapacidade (A), fragilidade (B) e pré-fragilidade (C) apresentaram melhores resultados. Seis dos nove participantes que iniciaram com a condição física ou pré-fragilidade (66,7%) reverteram essa condição após a intervenção. Além disso, 33% dos participantes que não conseguiram realizar os testes funcionais (sentar, levantar e andar) na linha de base, conseguiram concluí-los após a intervenção. Esses importantes benefícios em tão pouco tempo (4 semanas) podem estar relacionados a três elementos principais: individualização do programa, frequência diária e motivação do treinamento direcionado.

“…However, the local muscular fatigue induced by low intensity contractions to failure might be more pronounced in older individuals [22,23], conceivably leading to lower training volumes than would be accumulated with moderate-or high-load RE. In addition, high-load RE may be superior in improving functional performance than low-load RE, as measured by 30-second chair stand performance, arm curl and grip strength [24]. Finally, research suggests that PCaP report higher training intensities than objectively measured [25], indicating a need for objective measurement of the administered training intensity, in order to provide effective stimuli.…”

Purpose of Review The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of recent findings concerning the utilization of resistance exercise (RE) in prostate cancer (PCa), in particular as pertaining to the management of cancer therapy side effects. Recent Findings As of late, studies investigating the effects of RE in PCa patients have found positive effects on muscle strength, body composition, physical functioning, quality of life, and fatigue. The combination of RE and impact training appears to decrease the loss of bone mineral density. RE seems to be well accepted and tolerated, even by patients with bone metastatic disease, although a modification of the RE prescription is often necessary. Summary In PCa patients, RE has been well-researched and the data are clear that it is beneficial in multiple ways. Future directions should look at the long-term effects of RE, including mortality and relapse, as well as implementation of exercise programs.
