| dc.description.abstract | Athletes employ weight-loss protocols to lower fat mass (FM) and maintain fat-free mass (FFM) for performance purposes. Under mass-stable conditions, high resistance training volumes (HVRT) have been associated with greater increases in FFM than low resistance training volumes (LVRT). However, less is known about the effects of HVRT under caloric restriction (CR). Therefore, it remains unclear whether HVRT could elicit greater retention of FFM and improvements in strength during CR. Objectives Determine the effects of HVRT and high protein intake on FFM and strength in resistance-trained individuals after a 40% CR. | |
