Within Session Exercise Sequencing During Programming for Complex Training: Historical Perspectives, Terminology, and Training Considerations

Patrick Cormier et al.

Summary: The aim of this review is to outline the historical origins of resistance training strategies that combine high-load, low-velocity exercises and low-load, high-velocity exercises in the same training session. The article identifies discrepancies between scientific works and the terminology used in contemporary sport science publications. The authors propose complex training as an umbrella term with four different implementations.

Muscle Fiber Type Transitions with Exercise Training: Shifting Perspectives

Daniel L. Plotkin et al.

Summary: Human muscle fibers are classified based on myosin heavy chain isoforms into slow-twitch and fast-twitch fibers, prevalent in different types of elite athletes. The ability of fibers to shift between hybrid and pure forms as well as slow and fast types is evident, although there are limitations in current evidence. Single fiber analysis is crucial for accurate identification of fiber types, especially in the presence of hybrid fibers.

Comparison of post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) after isometric and isotonic exercise on vertical jump performance

Salvador Vargas-Molina et al.

Summary: The study aimed to compare the post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) induced by isometric and isotonic exercise on vertical jump performance. Both protocols showed similar PAPE effects on CMJ height after set 1, but neither demonstrated greater efficacy in increasing subsequent performance in healthy trained men.

A Biomechanical Analysis of Wide, Medium, and Narrow Grip Width Effects on Kinematics, Horizontal Kinetics, and Muscle Activity on the Sticking Region in Recreationally Trained Males During 1-RM Bench Pressing

Stian Larsen et al.

Summary: Grip width has been found to impact lifting performance, particularly in the sticking region where wider grips produce more lateral forces and larger horizontal shoulder joint moments compared to narrow grips. Utilizing a wide or medium grip width during 1-RM bench press attempts may be beneficial for recreationally trained males aiming to lift as much weight as possible.
