Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Fastest MV = The highest mean velocity within each set (typically occurring on the first repetition). Slowest MV = The lowest mean velocity within each set. REPs = number of repetitions performed. 60-20 = 60%1RM with 20% velocity loss; 60-40 = 60%1RM with 40% velocity loss; 80-20 = 80%1RM with 20% velocity loss; 80-40 = 80%1RM with 40% velocity loss.*Significantly different from 60-20 (p < .05);†Significantly different from 60-40 (p < .05);‡Significantly different from 80-20 (p < .05).
