Bottaro et al<a href="#bib15" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span></a> found that there are no differences in acute response of Co to a resistance exercise protocol with 30, 60 and 120 second (s) rest interval between sets in trained women. Also, Ahtiainen et al<a href="#bib21" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a> observed no significant differences in acute effect of short (2min) and long (5min) rest interval on concentrations of serum total Ts, free Ts, and Co. But, recently Rahimi et al<a href="#bib3" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> have demonstrated that serum Ts concentrations were significantly higher in 120 and 90s of rest interval between sets compared to 60s in men. Interestingly, Buresh et al<a href="#bib16" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span></a> showed that concentration of both Co and Ts with short rest interval (1min) was more than long rest interval (2.5min) after 1 week resistance training in untrained men. Since, Ts/Co ratio is an important indicative of anabolic and catabolic status, it is important to know how the resistance-trained men respond to stress imposed by different rest interval between sets in resistance exercise. However, to date no studies have compared the acute effects of different rest intervals between resistance exercise sets’ on Ts/Co ratio. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different rest intervals of 60, 90, and 120s between sets during a resistance exercise protocol on Ts to Co ratio in resistance trained men.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Methods</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0015" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> The experimental approach to the problem</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The primary research hypothesis of this investigation was that different rest intervals between sets would improve Ts/Co ratio. Each subject participated in 3 testing sessions, randomized and counterbalanced, involving 4 sets bench press and squat at 85% of 1RM to failure with 60, 90 and 120s rest between sets, in order to assess the effects of different rest intervals between sets on Ts/Co ratio. We hypothesized that when using short rest intervals between the sets in resistance exercise to failure (maximum repetitions per sets); the endocrine response should be larger along with a greater metabolic stress (i.e., lactate) than that of long rest periods between the sets. So, the Ts/Co ratio would be lower during RE with short rest period between sets.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Subjects</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Ten experienced resistance-trained college-age males (age, 22±2 years; weight, 84±8kg; height, 178.5±8.5; at least 1 year of RE experience) volunteered for this study. Each subject had at least 1 year recreational experience with resistance training and performed at least three resistance training sessions per week during the previous 6 months, but none were competitive strength athletes. The values for 1RM were 105.62±18kg for bench press and 106.31±19.71kg for squat. Subjects were informed of the experimental risks and signed an informed consent document prior to the investigation. The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Ethical Committee at the University of Kurdistan. Subjects were on their ordinary diet, not permitted to use nutritional supplementation and did not consume anabolic steroids or any other anabolic agents known to increase performance.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Experimental design</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The subjects were familiarized with the experimental testing procedures during a control day about one week before the actual measurements. Resistance load verification for the experimental bench press and squat exercises were also determined. All of the subjects went through three strength exercise trials of different rest intervals between sets. The strength exercises lasted from 09:00hours to 11:00hours and to avoid any potential carry-over effects and threats of internal validity, each of the three protocols was performed in a counterbalance order by all 10 participants. At least 48h but not more than 72h of recovery time was allowed between each training session.<a href="#bib22" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> During the control day, three blood samples were obtained from each subject. One blood sample was drawn in the morning after 12hours of fasting and approximately eight hours of sleep for determination of basal serum hormone concentration. Two blood samples were also drawn without exercise at the same time of day that each subject would later under tack his heavy-resistance loading protocols to determine the normal diurnal variation of serum hormone concentration. During the exercise sessions, blood samples (5ml) were drawn from an antecubital vein into 10-ml serum Vacutainer tubes at rest (Pre); immediately after (Post) and 30min after the end of the session (30Post). The experimental design comprised three resistance exercise protocols involving 4 sets bench press and squat at 85% of 1RM to failure with 60 (P60), 90 (P90) and 120 (P120) s rest between sets.<a href="#bib3" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib23" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Strength testing</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Maximal strength in bench press and squat was assessed by using one repetition maximum (1RM).<a href="#bib3" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib22" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib29" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">29</span></a> Warm-up consisted of a set of five repetitions at the loads of 40-50% of the perceived maximum. An attempt was considered successful when the movement was completed through a full range of motion without deviating from proper technique and form. Spotters were present to provide verbal encouragement and safety for the subjects. To ensure that all subjects were moving at approximately the same velocity for each repetition, each set was timed using a handheld stopwatch. The spotter called out a cadence for the eccentric and concentric phases of each repetition. The repetition velocity consisted of a 3-s eccentric phase followed by a 1-s concentric phase. During the next 3 testing sessions, 4 sets of the squat and bench press were performed with a 60-, 90-, or 120-s rest interval between sets. A counterbalance procedure was used to determine the order of the rest interval between sets for each testing session. Subjects didn’t allow continuing with their normal workouts throughout the duration of the study. Also, subjects were instructed not to perform training 48h before the testing session and subjects were instructed not to change their eating patterns during the study.<a href="#bib3" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib23" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0035" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Hormonal analysis</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Blood samples (5ml) were collected into tubes from the antecubital fossa using standard venipuncture techniques.

Serum TS and Co concentrations were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DRG Instruments GmbH, Germany; Division of DRG International, Inc., Hamburg, Germany) and Cortisol (Enzym Immunosorbant Assay, RADIM SpA, Via del Mare, 125- 00040 Pomezia, Roma, Italy), respectively. To eliminate inter-assay variance, all samples for a particular assay thawed once and analyzed in the same assay run.

Whereas, Ts/Co ratio in P60 trail decreased significantly after resistance exercise and remained lower until 30min after exercise but did not exhibit in P90 and P120 trails.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> These results indicating that the metabolic condition induced by RE with 120s rest interval between sets is favorable to the protein anabolism.<a href="#bib8" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib9" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Immediately (but, no longer) after resistance exercise, the participants presented a significant increase in this relation, fact that may be explained mainly by the more increasing in the testosterone than cortisol concentration. Herein, testosterone level increased significantly in post exercise than baseline by 120s rest intervals and remained at higher level after 30min recovery. But it didn’t change significantly neither in P60 nor P90 after exercise. On the other hand, our data revealed that cortisol level after short rest interval (both, 60 and 90s) increased after resistance exercise but not by 120s. These findings are in accordance with those of Kraemer et al,<a href="#bib17" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib26" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">26</span></a> who showed that high intensity RE (5RM) with large muscle groups and with 3-min rest between sets elevates TS concentrations.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Furthermore, Cortisol secretion responds quite rapidly to various stresses (e.g. exercise, hypoglycemia, surgery, etc.), typically within minutes. The importance of the Co response to RE is related to its catabolic effects on skeletal muscle. As a result, Co has been the catabolic hormone most frequently analyzed after RE.<a href="#bib25" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span></a> Gotshalk et al<a href="#bib31" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">31</span></a> reported that three sets versus one set of resistance exercises resulted in a greater cortisol increase. In the present study rest intervals between sets affect serum Co concentrations and observed higher level of Co concentrations in RE with short rest intervals (60-90s) between sets than long rest interval which is in accordance to previous studies.<a href="#bib21" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">, </span><a href="#bib25" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span></a> They have demonstrated that shorter rest intervals are associated with an increased Co response after resistance training. However, contrary to our findings, Bottaro et al<a href="#bib15" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span></a> reported that Co concentrations were not different among three RE protocol with 30, 60 and 120s rest durations between sets. The mechanisms responsible to increase Co concentrations in RE maybe due to physiological and psychological stress.<a href="#bib32" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">32</span></a> Thus, higher levels of blood Co during RE with 60 and 90s rest periods as compared to 120s protocol, maybe due to an increase in physiological stress in response to a short rest interval.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Our data revealed that short rest interval (P60) caused a significant reduction in Ts/Co ratio after resistance exercises so that, its values at immediately and 30min post exercise were significantly lower than the baseline. This is due to an exercise-induced increase in cortisol concentration that is more than testosterone concentration in P60 trail. Viru and Viru<a href="#bib5" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> emphasize that this change is clearly an overreaching indicative, but not an overtraining indicative. The reduction on the post-training Ts/Co ratio emphasized in P60, suggests that this stimulus has represented a punctual intense overload to the organism.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> There are few limitations of this study that warrant discussion. First, hormonal samples didn’t adjust for hemoconcentration changes which likely occurred to some degree as a results of RE. Therefore, it is recommended that future studies evaluate the plasma change in order to adjust hormonal concentrations. Second, these findings are specific to the RE protocol that was performed to failure. Further investigations are necessary to determine if these findings are generalizable to the RE protocol not to failure.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0055" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Practical applications</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> In summary, the present data indicate that RE with short rest period (60 and 90s) induced increase in serum cortisol concentration more than testosterone result in low Ts/Co ratio that it suggests catabolic processes are prevailed. In contrast, long rest period (120s) between sets in resistance exercise results in higher Ts/Co ratio due to more increased testosterone level than cortisol after exercise. It may be because of higher training volume and lower physiological stress in RE with 120s rest between sets vs. lower volume and higher stress with 60 and 90s rest periods between sets. Therefore, it is recommended that long rest periods between RE sets’ can be used to produce anabolic milieu in order to gain muscle mass and strength.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a name="sec0060" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a></p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Conflicts of interest</span><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Received 5 February 2011 <br></br> Accepted 28 March 2011</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Corresponding author. rahman.rahimi@yahoo.com</p>" "pdfFichero" => "277v46n171a90027049pdf001.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:1 [ "en" => array:1 [ "resumen" => "<span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle"> Abstract</span><br/><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The ratio between testosterone and cortisol concentration (Ts/Co ratio) is frequently used as an index of the stress level in exercise training. Changes in this ratio are responsible for several training responses such as hypertrophy and strength gain. So the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 4 sets of bench press and squat to failure with %85 of 1RM using different rest intervals of 60 (P60), 90 (P90) and 120 (P120) second on testosterone to cortisol ratio in resistance trained men. Ten recreationally resistance-trained men (age, 22±2 years; weight, 84±8kg; height, 178.5±8.5; at least 1 year of resistance exercise [RE] experience) performed RE protocols on randomized separating session. Blood draws occurred at pre-exercise (Pre); immediately after (Post) and 30min after the end of the session (30Post) for measurement serum testosterone and cortisol concentrations. The results of this study indicated that Ts/Co ratio in P60 trail was significantly lower at post and 30min post compare to pre-exercise (p≤0.05). The Ts/Co ratio at post exercise was significantly higher in P120 than P60 and P90 (p≤0.05), but no difference was found between P60 and P90. The data indicate that long rest period between sets in RE to failure resulted in a grater increase in Ts/Co ratio than short rest period between sets in RE. The enhanced in Ts/Co ratio by long rest period between sets, indicating an augmented anabolic state to RE in resistance trained men.</p>" ] ] "bibliografia" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Bibliography" "seccion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "bibliografiaReferencia" => array:32 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "bib1" "etiqueta" => "1" "referencia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "referenciaCompleta" => "Physiologic responses to heavy resistance exercise with very short rest periods.
