RCT comparing acute responses to power training at three fatigue levels in older adults
This randomized controlled trial compared acute neuromuscular and physiological responses to power training on a pneumatic leg press at three different velocity loss thresholds (fatigue levels) in healthy adults aged 65–85 years. Participants completed three supervised sessions approximately one week apart, with measurements of strength, mobility, blood markers, perceived exertion, and muscle soreness taken before and after exercise.
