Zusammenfassung:The purpose of this study was to examine myoelectric activity, fatigue index and volume load adopting different intersession recovery periods between repeated resistance training (RT) bouts. Fifteen recreationally-trained men participated in this study. Eight-repetition maximum (8RM) loads were determined for the bench press (BP) and 30° incline bench press (BP30) over two non-consecutive days. Three experimental protocols were performed in randomized order to examine the effect of different intersession recovery periods between repeated RT sessions for upper body muscles (pectoral major activity, anterior deltoid, triceps brachii, and biceps brachii) on volume load and myoelectric activity (SEMG), including: 24hours (P24); 48hours (P48); and 72hours (P72). Each RT session consisted of performing four sets to failure for the BP and BP30 with 8-RM loads and 2-minute rest intervals between sets. The results showed that for SEMG activity, during the BP and BP30 exercises, there were no significant main effects for session, protocol, or interaction between protocols and sessions in the percentage difference between sets in activity of all muscles analyzed. Considering the overall session volume load, a significant main effect for session was noted. Volume load was significantly lower in Session 2 versus Session 1 under the P24h protocol, without significant differences between the P48 and P72. Therefore, coaches and practitioners who need to accomplish a higher volume load without negatively impacting fatigue index and myoelectric activity for upper body muscles, should adopt recovery periods longer than 24hours between similar RT bouts. L’objectif de cette étude était d’observer l’activité myoélectrique, l’indice de fatigue et la charge volumique en alternant différentes sessions de repos avec un entraînement en résistance (ER). Quinze hommes qui s’entraînent pour le loisir ont participé à cette étude. Huit-répétitions maximum (8RM) de charges ont été déterminées pour le développé couché (DC) et une autre session avec développé couché incliné à 30° (DC30) pendant deux jours non consécutifs. Trois protocoles expérimentaux ont été réalisé dans un ordre aléatoire afin d’observer les effets de différentes sessions de repos alternées avec les sessions d’entraînement en résistance (ER) pour les muscles du haut du corps (l’activité grand pectorale, le deltoïde antérieur, le triceps et biceps brachial) avec le volume de charge et l’activité myoélectrique (EMGS), incl
