One set resistance training: effect on body composition in overweight young adults

This study evaluate the impact of a 6-month, 1-set RT protocol on changes in weight and body composition in overweight young adults. Sixty-three overweight young adults were randomized to RT or control; 55 participants (RT: N.=32; C: N.=23; BMI=27.3+2.9; age=20.7+2.7 yrs) competed the 6 month traini...

Zusammenfassung:	This study evaluate the impact of a 6-month, 1-set RT protocol on changes in weight and body composition in overweight young adults. Sixty-three overweight young adults were randomized to RT or control; 55 participants (RT: N.=32; C: N.=23; BMI=27.3+2.9; age=20.7+2.7 yrs) competed the 6 month training protocol and all assessments. RT consisted of 1-set, 9 exercises, 3 times/wk., with a resistance of 3-6 repetition maximum (RM). Body composition was assessed using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and strength using 1RM. Participants were instructed to maintain their normal ad libitum diet and normal activities of daily living. Body weight and BMI increased significantly (P
