Neuromuscular adaptations to different modes of combined strength and endurance training.

The present study investigated neuromuscular adaptations between same-session combined strength and endurance training with 2 loading orders and different day combined training over 24 weeks. 56 subjects were divided into different day (DD) combined strength and endurance training (4–6 d · wk -1 ) and same-session combined training: endurance preceding strength (E+S) or vice versa (S+E) (2–3 d · wk -1 ). Dynamic and isometric strength, EMG, voluntary activation, muscle cross-sectional area and endurance performance were measured. All groups increased dynamic one-repetition maximum (p
