Pretesting
After screening and admittance to the study, all participants underwent a period of pre-testing, which took place ≥5 and ≤10 d before the initiation of the experimental period. This included strength testing, muscle function testing, and familiarization with the exercise equipment to be used. Participants completed 1 repetition maximum (1RM) tests for the barbell back squat, conventional deadlift, and incline (30°) barbell bench press. Participants then completed a number of unilateral leg exercise tests on an isokinetic dynamometer (Biodex Medical Systems, Shirley, New York, USA), in line with our previous work (See Supplemental Material for further detail) [
