Effects of Inter-Set Rest Intervals on Muscle Damage After Flywheel Exercise in Untrained Men (RCT)
25. juni 2026 opdateret af: Federal University of Vicosa
Effects of Different Inter-Set Rest Intervals on Indirect Markers of Muscle Damage and Mechanical Parameters After Flywheel Resistance Training in Untrained Men: A Randomized Parallel-Group Clinical Trial
This randomized parallel-group clinical trial will compare the acute effects of three different inter-set rest intervals during a single lower-limb flywheel resistance exercise session in untrained men.
Participants will be randomly allocated to one of three groups: 1-minute, 2-minute, or 3-minute inter-set rest interval.
The primary outcome will be the change in maximal voluntary isometric contraction of the knee extensors 48 hours after exercise.
Secondary outcomes will include mechanical variables during the exercise session, countermovement jump performance, knee flexor maximal voluntary isometric contraction, muscle soreness, pressure pain threshold, range of motion, ultrasound-derived muscle thickness and echo intensity, perceived exertion, perceived discomfort, perceived recovery status, creatine kinase, and lactate dehydrogenase.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
Participants will complete seven laboratory visits. The first two visits will be used for baseline assessments and test-retest reliability. The third and fourth visits will be used for technical familiarization with the flywheel exercises. The fifth visit will include the experimental flywheel resistance exercise session and immediate post-exercise assessments. The sixth and seventh visits will include follow-up assessments 48 and 96 hours after the experimental session, respectively. Blood samples for creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase will be collected before the experimental session and 72 hours after exercise in a partner laboratory.
The experimental session will include squat, Romanian deadlift, knee extension, and knee flexion exercises performed using flywheel devices. All groups will perform the same exercises, volume, inertia, and execution instructions. The only difference between groups will be the inter-set rest interval: 1 minute, 2 minutes, or 3 minutes.

Eksperimentel: 1-Minute Inter-set Rest Interval
Participants allocated to this group will perform a single lower-limb flywheel resistance exercise session using a 1-minute inter-set rest interval.
The session will include squat, Romanian deadlift, knee extension, and knee flexion exercises.

Participants will perform a single lower-limb flywheel resistance exercise session using a 1-minute inter-set rest interval.
The session will include squat, Romanian deadlift, knee extension, and knee flexion exercises.
Each exercise will be performed for 4 sets of 2 preparatory repetitions followed by 8 valid repetitions, using the same flywheel inertia, exercise order, and execution instructions across all groups.
Participants will be instructed to perform the concentric phase as fast as possible and to brake the eccentric phase during the final portion of the movement.
The interval between exercises will be standardized at 3 minutes.
