We determined the effect of concurrent training incorporating either high-intensity interval training (HIT) or moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on maximal strength, counter-movement jump (CMJ) performance, and body composition adaptations, compared with single-mode resistance training (RT). Twenty-three recreationally-active males (mean ± SD: age, 29.6 ± 5.5 y; V ̇O 2peak, 44 ± 11 mL∙kg-1•min-1) were ranked by one-repetition maximum (1-RM) leg press strength and randomly allocated tounderwent 8 weeks (3 sessions•wk-1) of either: 1) HIT combined with RT (HIT+RT group, n=8), 2) work-matched MICT combined with RT (MICT+RT group, n=7), or 3) RT performed alone (RT group, n=8). Measures of aerobic capacity, maximal (1-RM) strength, counter-movement jump (CMJ) performance and body composition (DXA) were obtained before (PRE), mid-way (MID), and after (POST) eight weeks of training. Maximal (one-repetition maximum [1-RM]) leg press strength was improved from PRE to POST for RT (mean change ±90% confidence interval; 38.5 ±8.5%; effect size [ES] ±90% confidence interval; 1.26 ±0.24; P |
