Abstract:
... A key variable within resistance training (RT) is that of repetition duration: the time (seconds) taken to perform the concentric and eccentric muscle actions of a repetition. Research has produced equivocal results with regard to strength and muscle mass increases; many studies have created parity in the number of repetitions, but there has been disparity in the load used and the time under load ...

Abstract:
... Evaluation of body composition is a relevant clinical instrument for the follow-up assessments of children and adolescents, and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is an accurate method for the pediatric population. However, DXA has limited scan area for the obese population. Thus, half-body scans emerged as an alternative to evaluate individuals with obesity. The aim of this study was to compa ...

Although current guidelines for obesity treatment endorse lifestyle modifications to achieve weight loss, energy-restricted diets are still the most commonly used method for the management of overweight. Diet restriction, however, not only is ineffective in promoting long-term weight loss but also may have more costs than benefits, predisposing the individual to fat regain.
