Novel Resistance Training Approach to Monitoring the Volume in Older Adults: The Role of Movement Velocity

Abstract: 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 part… Show more

“…The coaches and physical trainers can choose more suitable training programs according to the characteristics of athletes and the training goals of customers. The evidence so far confirms that VBRT could be used for people who are not suitable for PBT load setting (such as adolescents 39 and the elderly 60 61 ) . VBRT may be the preferred option for those people who have a time limit, aim to maintain power output, have other training arrangements, still in the season, use equipment for valuable information to pursue greater strength and power adaptation, or focus on improving sports ability (strength and explosive force).…”

“…The participants held the ball on their chest and threw it as far as possible while seated on a chair (0.49 m) (Marques et al, 2020). They performed three trials with 1 and 3 kg balls, interspersed with 1-min rest.…”

“…The inter-set rest was 3 min for three repetitions and 5 min for two repetitions (Marques et al, 2021). Using the procedures described elsewhere (Marques et al, 2020), we coupled a linear velocity transducer (T-Force System, Ergotech, Spain) to the leg press and chest press machines to calculate each repetition's mean and peak power. We selected the maximal mean and peak power values attained with each weight for analysis.…”

“…During the sit-to-stand test, researchers and clinicians commonly measure the time spent to perform a fixed number of repetitions or the number of repetitions performed during a specific time [ 4 , 14 ]. Commonly, the evaluators use a chronometer to measure the time during the sit-to-stand test [ 27 , 28 ]. Despite its low cost and ease of use, chronometers present some limitations, mainly associated with human error (e.g., reaction time delay and position judgment) [ 29 , 30 , 31 ].…”
