Changes in muscle hypertrophy in women with periodized resistance training

Article Abstract:

Adaptation of arm and thigh muscle hypertrophy to different long-term periodized resistance training programs and the influence of upper body resistance training are examined. It is concluded that training specificity was supported by the inclusion of heavier loading ranges in a periodized resistance-training program and that it can be advantageous in a total conditioning program directed at development of muscle tissue mass in young women.
