Energy balance
The study utilized an undulating resistance training program with varying repetitions over 8 weeks.
An undulating training program can be effectively implemented for strength training.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Both groups performed the bench press 3x/wk on non-consecutive days... using the same number of sets and repetitions on an undulating resistance training program.
Why this rating
The structured training program is a key aspect of the study's methodology.
