2024 Summit - Minimum-effective Doses of Resistance Training

About this course

Common adaptation to resistance training is associated with improved cardiovascular health and functional task performance. Despite these positive outcomes, most American adults do not partake in structured resistance training programs, and many of them cite discomfort and lack of time as their primary barriers. High-volume resistance training sessions require a lot of time and may result in higher levels of fatigue and soreness, which contributes to the previously cited barriers. Thus, in this class, you will learn how to significantly reduce your training volume and time commitment without compromising hypertrophy and strength.

What you will learn

• Differentiate between minimal- and maximal-effective doses of resistance training.
• Describe the minimum-effective dose of resistance training required to build muscle mass and strength.
• Implement a variety of time-efficient resistance training programs that adhere to the minimum-effective dose principle.
