Abstract

To investigate the effect of rest periods on fatigue, twelve resistance trained males (25.75±5.13 y; 79.27±8.17 kg; 1RM = 1.90±0.23 x body mass) performed 3 sets of 12 repetitions of back squats using 60% 1RM for two different set configurations: traditional sets (TS) where all repetitions within a set were performed in a row, and cluster sets (CS) where 30 seconds of rest was provided after the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th,and 10th repetition of each set...
