abstract = {Concurrent training has been postulated as an appropriate time-efficient
strategy
to improve physical fitness, yet whether the exercise-induced
adaptations are
similar in men and women is unknown. An unblinded randomized controlled
trial was conducted to investigate sex-specific
dose–response
effects of a 24-week
supervised concurrent exercise training program on cardiorespiratory fitness and
muscular strength in young adults. One hundred and forty-four
sedentary adults
aged 18–25
years were assigned to either (i) a control group (n = 54), (ii) a moderate
intensity exercise group (MOD-EX,
n = 46), or (iii) a vigorous intensity exercise
group (VIG-EX,
n = 44) by unrestricted randomization. Cardiorespiratory
fitness (VO2max), hand grip strength, and one-repetition
maximum of leg press
and bench press were evaluated at baseline and after the intervention. A total
of 102 participants finished the intervention (Control, n = 36; 52% women,
MOD-EX,
n = 37; 70% women, and VIG-EX,
n = 36; 72% women). In men, VO2max
significantly increased in the MOD-EX
(~8%) compared with the control group 
and in the VIG-EX
group after the intervention (~6.5%). In women, VO2max increased
in the MOD-EX
and VIG-EX
groups (~5.5%) compared with the control
group after the intervention. There was a significant increment of leg press in
the MOD-EX
(~15.5%) and VIG-EX
(~18%) groups compared with the control
group (~1%) in women. A 24-week
supervised concurrent exercise was effective
at improving cardiorespiratory fitness and lower body limbs muscular strength
in young women—independently
of the predetermined intensity—while
only at
moderate intensity improved cardiorespiratory fitness in men},
