Document Summary
Kin 4kk3 lecture 8 resistance exercise and nmes cont: another guideline (like csep) for prescribing resistance exercise - acsm, context different - rehab setting, will have to address different things like hypertrophy. Endurance parameters: 2-4 sets, 10-25 reps, endurance might be very relevant when we thing of standing occupations. Lower rest intervals (30-60 seconds) in between sets - lower than strength and hypertrophy. Strength and hypertrophy: 1-3 sets, 8-12 reps, could be even as low as 6. Longer rest intervals - because higher intensity loads - 1-3 minutes between sets - need longer recovery. Electric modality like tens: electrodes that create current, need a circuit for current to flow thorugh, therefore set up will look very similar. Same device: yes and no, manipulate settings with the intention of facilitating a contraction in this case (tens it was to help. Same device, settings that change the outcome of stimulation modify pain)
