The effects of resistance training to near volitional failure on motor unit recruitment during neuromuscular fatigue
Both low and high RIR training improved time-to-task failure, but resulted in comparable motor unit recruitment during fatiguing contractions. Our findings indicate that both low and high RIR training can be used to enhance fatiguability among previously resistance-trained adults.
