Abstract in brief

  • The study compared the effects of single-joint (SJ) and multi-joint (MJ) lower body resistance exercises on strength gains in recreationally active males and females, using a within-participant design where each participant performed both types of exercises.
  • Results showed significant strength increases for both SJ and MJ exercises after 6 weeks, with MJ exercises producing significantly greater improvements in one-repetition maximum (1RM) across all measures.
  • The findings suggest that multi-joint exercises are more effective for building strength and could be a time-efficient and simple option for general strength training, rehabilitation, and sports performance.
