“…Comparing these results with those of another study that measured the physiological responses of an FFT protocol up to 15 min of rest, it was observed that MPV at 1 m·s −1 was not recovered only in the military press test of FFTstrength [ 18 ]. However, in the fatigue test at 1 m·s −1 in squat of the FFTstrength and in the fatigue tests in military press and squat of FFTendurance, the pre-exercise values were recovered, despite obtaining values of ≈13 mmol·L −1 after 15 min of rest [ 18 ]. The high values of blood lactate compared to those obtained in this protocol (≈4 mmol·L −1 ) may be due to the different nature of the exercises and the time used to execute each exercise.…”

“…However, few studies have measured the time that VL can be maintained or the moment at which the pre-exercise velocity values are recovered within the same training session. In a recent study, Maté Muñoz et al (2022) [ 18 ] measured neuromuscular fatigue in an endurance session of functional fitness training (FFTendurance) and in a strength session of functional fitness training (FFTstrength) through VL, reporting that this velocity was recovered after 15 min of rest. Although the velocity values of FFTendurance were recovered after 15 min of rest, in the FFTstrength session, velocity was only recovered in the 1 m·s −1 tests in squat, whereas velocity in the 1 m·s −1 tests in military press exercise decreased by 7%.…”

Background: Velocity loss (VL) at 1 m·s−1 can help to determine neuromuscular fatigue after performing an exercise protocol. The aim of this study was to analyse muscle fatigue and metabolic stress during the 15 min that follow the execution of a bench press (BP) exercise protocol. Methods: Forty-four healthy male students of sports science performed two exercise sessions separated by one week of rest. In the first week, the participants carried out a test with progressive loads in the (BP) exercise until reaching the one-repetition maximum (1RM) in order to obtain the load–velocity relationship of each participant. In the second week, each participant conducted three BP exercise sets at an intensity of 70% of 1RM, determining this load through the mean propulsive velocity (MPV) obtained from the individual load–velocity relationship, with the participants performing the maximum number of repetitions (MNR) to muscle failure. Two minutes of rest were allocated between sets. MPV at 1 m·s−1 and blood lactate concentrations were recorded before executing the exercise and at minute 0, 5, 10 and 15 after performing the exercise protocol. Results: A two-factor repeated measures ANOVA was performed. MPV at 1 m·s−1 in minute 0 post-exercise was −33.3% (p < 0.05), whereas in minute 10 and 15 post-exercise, it was ≈−9% (p > 0.05). Regarding the blood lactate levels, significant differences were observed in all measurements before and after the exercise protocol (p < 0.001), obtaining ≈7 mmol·L−1 at minute 10 post-exercise and 4.3 mmol·L−1 after 15 min of recovery. Conclusions: MPV with medium or moderate loads shows a certain recovery from minute 10 of rest. However, the blood lactate levels are still high (>5 mmol·L−1). Therefore, although there seem to be certain conditions to reach a similar maximum MPV peak, the residual fatigue at the neuromuscular level and the non-recovery of metabolic homeostasis would hinder the reproduction of these protocols, both at the level of applied stimulus and from a methodological perspective, since a long recovery time would be required between sets and exercises.

“…A progressive load test of BP to 1RM (1RM test) was performed based on the warm-up and the execution of the exercise protocol from previous studies [ 36 , 40 , 41 ], and we obtained the load-to-velocity ratio of each individual.…”

“…Nevertheless, although these earlier studies associate the improvements in performance with a greater capacity to recover between sets, a few studies have measured the recovery period after performing an intense exercise protocol. Recent studies have measured recovery at 15 min after a multiple-set exercise protocol with bench pressing [ 35 ] or a high-interval functional training protocol [ 36 ], with the aim of determining the recovery time required to perform another exercise protocol in the same session, reaching levels of execution velocity that are similar to those that were obtained in the first protocol, in order to reduce the residual fatigue and increase the performance capacity. In this sense, it would be interesting to know whether creatine supplementation can help people to recover the initial strength levels after performing an exercise protocol.…”

Background: The aims of this study were to analyse the effect of creatine supplementation on the performance improvement in a bench pressing (BP) strength test of muscle failure and to evaluate muscle fatigue and metabolic stress 20 min after the exercise. Methods: Fifty young and healthy individuals were randomly assigned to a creatine group (n = 25) or a placebo group (n = 25). Three exercise sessions were carried out, with one week of rest between them. In the first week, a progressive load BP test was performed until the individuals reached the one repetition maximum (1RM) in order to for us obtain the load-to-velocity ratio of each participant. In the second week, the participants conducted a three-set BP exercise protocol against 70% 1RM, where they performed the maximum number of repetitions (MNR) until muscle failure occurred, with two minutes of rest between the sets. After one week, and following a supplementation period of 7 days, where half of the participants consumed 0.3 g·kg−1·day−1 of creatine monohydrate (CR) and the other half consumed 0.3 g·kg−1·day−1 of placebo (PLA, maltodextrin), the protocol from the second week was repeated. After each set, and up to 20 min after finishing the exercise, the blood lactate concentrations and mean propulsive velocity (MPV) at 1 m·s−1 were measured. Results: The CR group performed a significantly higher number of repetitions in Set 1 (CR = 14.8 repetitions, PLA = 13.6 repetitions, p = 0.006) and Set 2 (CR = 8 repetitions, PLA = 6.7 repetitions, p = 0.006) after supplementation, whereas no significant differences were seen in Set 3 (CR = 5.3 repetitions, PLA = 4.7 repetitions, p = 0.176). However, there was a significant increase in blood lactate at minute 10 (p = 0.003), minute 15 (p = 0.020), and minute 20 (p = 0.015) after the exercise in the post-supplementation period. Similarly, a significant increase was observed in the MPV at 1 m·s−1 in the CR group with respect to the PLA group at 10, 15, and 20 min after the exercise. Conclusions: Although the creatine supplementation improved the performance in the strength test of muscle failure, the metabolic stress and muscle fatigue values were greater during the 20 min of recovery.

“…Previous HIFT research demonstrates the necessity for balanced performance testing that is accessible to HIFT novices [ 34 ]. Moreover, previous HIFT research has used a single familiarization session for experienced participants prior to testing [ 35 ]. Considering HIFT’s physical health benefits, its ability to increase anticipatory anxiety, and its growing popularity, further research may help elucidate the relationship between anxiety, familiarization, and performance and establish an appropriate performance testing protocol for HIFT novices.…”

Accurate baseline data are essential for researchers to determine an intervention’s effects yet may be affected by anticipatory anxiety and assessment familiarity. Familiarization sessions help establish accurate baseline data. High-intensity functional training (HIFT) elicits performance outcomes based on constantly varied workouts. It is unclear how familiarization affects anticipatory anxiety and workout performance among HIFT novices. Familiarization was hypothesized to decrease anxiety and improve workout performance. Sixteen college-aged subjects (62.5% women, 20.2 ± 1.14 years) completed one introductory and four sessions of the same workout. All subjects were recreationally trained with no HIFT experience. State and trait anxiety were assessed at the first session. During the workout sessions, state anxiety (SQALS) was assessed upon arrival at the gym (SQALS 1), after learning the workout protocol (SQALS 2), and when the workout concluded (SQALS 3). A significant main effect of the number of previous sessions on workout performance was observed (p = 0.011). A repeated-measures ANOVA showed a main effect of time on SQALS 1 (p < 0.001), SQALS 2 (p < 0.001), and SQALS 3 (p < 0.001). Our results suggest implementing two familiarization sessions for our HIFT-based workout was sufficient to decrease anxiety and establish a baseline measurement. Future research should examine if this remains true for other types of HIFT-based workouts.
