Statistical analysis showed that 1-minute RI improved the maintenance of the ideal pushing technique, evidenced by the reduction of falls in the vertical peak displacement bar (2.74%; p = 0.03), maximum bar speed (2.89% %; p = 0.03) and peak of the knee (1.61%; p = 0.03) and hip extensions (1.59%; p = 0.03) during the push movement phase. In addition, the 3 min IR led to the maintenance of the ideal elevation strategy, reducing the increase in horizontal displacement during the descending (3.85%; p = 0.04) and ascending (5.42%; o = 0, 02). |

Only the SL group showed significant increases in GH (7704.20 11833 49%, P <0 05) and MT (35 2 16 9%, P<0 05) immediately after training. After 8 weeks, the CSAs of the arm in both groups increased significantly [SL: 9 93.4 86% (P <001), LH: 4 73 3 01% (P <0 05)]. No significant correlation between acute elevations in GH and increases in CSA can be observed. The data showed a tendency for greater increases in the muscular CSA in the SL group compared to the LH group, despite the similarity in the training volume. |

The total load volume did not differ significantly between protocols, therefore, the total amount of work performed in all sequences was similar (p> 0.05). A comprehensive upper body TF session, with 90 sec IR between sets and exercises promoted a longer HPE, specifically in SBP, compared to a 40-second rest interval between sets and exercises regardless of the order of exercise |
