Acute hormonal and muscular responses and recovery : chronic adaptations to single session combined strength and endurance training with regard to order effect

TL;DRAbstract

Combining both strength (S) and endurance (E) exercise loadings into a single training session can be considered to be of interest e.g. for time management purposes. However, the first loading in a combined session tends to produce notable acute fatigue responses, which can lead to the second loading being performed in a compromised state. Research on fatigue and recovery from a combined session with different loading orders is currently scarce, with even less attention given to the acute responses. Thus, this study investigated the long-term adaptations in the acute responses of a combined strength and endurance loading and whether or not there is an order effect. A total of 29 male subjects completed the study which consisted of 24 weeks of combined strength and endurance training. All subjects participated first in the basal measurements of strength and endurance and were then assigned to one of the two groups: performing endurance before strength (E+S) or vice versa (S+E).
