Evidence-Based Resistance Training Recommendations

Abstract: Resistance training produces an array of health benefits, as well as the potential to promote muscular adaptations of strength, size, power and endurance. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) regularly publish a position stand making recommendations for optimal achievement of the desired training goals. However, the most recent position stand (as well as previous ones) has come under heavy criticism for misrepresentation of research, lack of evidence and author bias. Therefore this paper proposes a s… Show more

“…Although this strategy does describe the intensity of the load used, the overall intensity associated with a resistance training session is a far more complex construct. Fisher et al [12] argue that the truest definition of 'intensity' for resistance exercise sets relates the level of effort applied, irrespective of the weight lifted. Therefore, an individual lifting a load to failure will have worked at maximal intensity (for that particular set at least), whether the load is equal to 30% 1RM or 80% 1RM.…”

“…Previously authors (e.g. Carpinelli et al 2004;Fisher et al 2011) have suggested this amendment but apparently the efforts to change this paradigm have not been widely enough accepted. Perhaps authors, editorial boards, reviewers and readers, as well as members and coordinators of associations such as the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and other scientists might consider the accuracy and use of this terminology in the future.…”
