Thirty-six young men and women were randomly assigned to one of two experimental, parallel groups to complete an 8-week RT programme: One group received direct supervision for their RT sessions (SUP); the other group performed the same RT programme in an unsupervised manner (UNSUP). Programme variables were kept constant between groups. We obtained pre- and post-study assessments of body composition via multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (MF-BIA), muscle thickness of the upper and lower limbs via ultrasound, 1 repetition maximum (RM) in the back squat and bench press, isometric knee extension strength, and countermovement jump (CMJ) height. Results showed the SUP group generally achieved larger increases in muscle thickness for the triceps brachii, all sites of the rectus femoris, and the proximal region of the vastus lateralis. MF-BIA indicated increases in lean mass favoured SUP. Squat 1RM was greater for SUP; bench press 1RM and isometric knee extension were similar between conditions. CMJ increases modestly favoured UNSUP. In conclusion, our findings suggest that supervised RT promotes greater muscular adaptations and enhances exercise adherence in young, resistance-trained individuals.}, organization = {This study was supported by a PSC-CUNY grant (#65333-00 53) and a FPUpre-doctoral grant (FPU18/00686).}, keywords = {intensity of effort}, keywords = {adherence}, keywords = {resistance exercise}, keywords = {hypertrophy}, keywords = {strength}, title = {Supervision during resistance training positively influences muscular adaptations in resistance- trained individuals}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1080/02640414.2023.2261090}, author = {Coleman, Max and Burke, Ryan and Benavente Bardera, Cristina and PiƱero, Alec and Augustin, Francesca and Maldonado, Jaime and Fisher, James P. and Oberlin, Douglas and Vigotsky, Andrew D. and Schoenfeld, Brad J.}, }
