Functional Resistance Training and Affective Response in Female College-Age Students

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION While resistance training (RT) can lead to acute improvements in psychological, physiological and psychosocial outcomes, prevalence rates remain low in college-age females likely due to perceived barriers. This study compared the effects of an acute bout of both a functional (FRT) and traditional resistance training (TRT) session on affect, state anxiety enjoyment and physiological measures. METHODS Females (n=34, mean age = 27±4.5 years) not currently meeting ACSM RT guidelines completed 4 sessions (2 FRT, 2 TRT) within 4-weeks in a randomized crossover design. Session 1 familiarized participants to the RT exercises. Session 2 consisted of 2x10 moderate intensity repetitions. Outcome measures included affect and state anxiety (pre, post, and 15-minutes post-exercise); enjoyment (post), and manipulation measures were RPE and heart rate HR). RESULTS Between condition comparisons indicate change scores in state anxiety pre- to post-15 (p=0.028) and enjoyment levels post- (p=0.02) were significantly greater in FRT than TRT. Within condition analyses revealed pre- to post-15 changes in affect were positive and greater in FRT (d=0.79) than TRT (d=0.53, p=0.47), and greater in decreases in state anxiety (FRT, d=-0.58; TRT, d=-0.37, p=0.028). Mean session RPE was not significantly different between conditions (FRT 6±1.2 units; TRT 6.3±1.1 units; p=0.11), though average % of age predicted max HR (FRT 68.7±7.6; TRT 57.1±8.4) was significantly different (p
