Resistance Training, Detraining, and Retraining Study 2022

Participants (healthy untrained men and women, age 18-40) start with a 3-week familiarization and baseline measurement period. After that, they are randomized to two intervention groups, where other group will conduct 10-week RT intervention and a 10-week DT period and again the exact same 10-week RT intervention again whereas the other group start with a 10-week non-training period and then continues with a 20-week RT intervention. RT consists of two training sessions per week of total body workouts. Same measurements are conducted for both groups with the same time intervals.
