Effect of isometric exercise on pain perception and blood pressure in men and women

Article Abstract:

This article investigates the effects of handgrip exercise on pain threshold and blood pressure in a sample of men and women. Findings indicate that baseline blood pressure levels and pain perception differed significantly between groups and only women reported lower pain ratings of a pressure stimulus after submaximal exercise.

Single versus multiple sets in long-term recreational weightlifters

Article Abstract:

Results show that weightlifters training on a single set of programs over a 13 week period and those on multiple sets showed significant improvement in muscular fitness and body composition. The study further shows that multiple sets do not lead to any greater improvements than single set training programs.
