DOES THE SEQUENCE OF EXERCISE IN A RESISTANCE TRAINING SESSION AFFECT STRENGTH GAINS AND MUSCULAR HYPERTROPHY? A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE EVIDENCE Ralph N. Carpinelli
Journal Title: Medicina Sportiva - Year 2013, Vol 17, Issue 1
Abstract
In a recent review of resistance training, the authors claimed that the sequence of performing resistance exercises in a training session is an important variable that can influence the efficiency, safety and effectiveness of a resistance training program. This Critical Examination challenges those claims and reveals that the sequence of performing resistance exer¬cise has very little meaningful neuromuscular implication for an acute response (the ability to perform a specific number of repetitions) or any clinical application for chronic adaptations such as strength gains or muscular hypertrophy.
