| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maximal-intent Resistance Training - 3x5 (MI3x5) | Experimental | The max-intent group were instructed and encouraged to deliberately commit to exerting maximal effort and force during the concentric phase of the leg press with the intention of achieving the greatest velocity possible. This group completed 3 sets of 5 repetitions at 60% one-repetition maximum. |
|
| Maximal-intent Resistance Training - 5x5 (MI5x5) | Experimental | The max-intent group were instructed and encouraged to deliberately commit to exerting maximal effort and force during the concentric phase of the leg press with the intention of achieving the greatest velocity possible. This group completed 5 sets of 5 repetitions at 60% one-repetition maximum. |
|
| Controlled-tempo Resistance Training - 3x5 (CT3x5) | Experimental | The controlled-tempo group followed a metronome for both eccentric and concentric phases of the leg press with the intention of maintaining a steady three-second concentric and three-second eccentric. This group completed 3 sets of 5 repetitions at 60% one-repetition maximum. |

A "brisk"-paced 6-minute walk test.
| At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| Timed-up-and-go | Standing from a chair, walking to a point 3 metres away, turn, and return to the chair as quick as possible whilst walking. | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| 30-second sit-to-stand (30s-Sit-to-Stand) | Maximal amount of repetitions a participant can stand up from a chair in 30-seconds. | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| Strength | Participants one-repetition max on leg press machine. | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| Body Mass Index | Mass and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m^2 | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| Strength-to-mass Ratio | Mass and Leg Press 1RM will be combined to calculate strength-to-mass ratio. | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
| Leg press one-rep-max velocity pre-to-post | Velocity (m/s) of leg press measured at post-intervention, using baseline one-rep-max. | At baseline and Week 1, mid (Week 4), and post (Week 9), out of a total study duration of 9 weeks. |
