Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of different combinations of training intensity and frequency on quadriceps muscle strength, muscle thickness, skeletal muscle mass, and urinary titin concentration following an 8-week resistance training (RT) program, aiming to determine the optimal exercise dose for effective muscle strengthening.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

1) Isokinetic maximum voluntary contraction of the quadriceps
2) Quadriceps muscle thickness measured by ultrasound
3) Body composition analysis
4) Urinary N-terminal titin fragment concentration (Urine samples collected before the start of RT, at rest at the final RT session, 8 hours post-RT, 96 hours post-RT, and 1 week post-RT)
