The number of sets in a resistance training program remains a major point of discussion and controversy. Studies prior to 1998 demonstrated inconsistent findings between single-set and multiple-set programs; however, recent evidence suggests that multiple sets promote additional benefits following short- and long-term training. The rationale supporting multiple sets is that the number of sets is part of the exercise volume equation, and the volume of exercise is crucial in producing the stimulus necessary to elicit specific physiological adaptations. The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of recent resistance training studies comparing single and multiple sets. However, it should be noted that studies to date have been conducted in young and middle-aged adults, and it remains to be determined if the additional benefits accrued with multiple-set training also occurs for older adults, especially the frail elderly.
抗阻训练计划中的组数仍然是一个主要的讨论和争议点。1998年之前的研究表明，单组训练计划和多组训练计划的结果不一致；然而，最近的证据表明，短期和长期训练后，多组训练能带来更多益处。支持多组训练的理论依据是，组数是训练量公式的一部分，而训练量对于产生引发特定生理适应所需的刺激至关重要。本文的目的是概述近期比较单组和多组训练的抗阻训练研究。然而，应该注意的是，迄今为止的研究都是在年轻人和中年人中进行的，多组训练带来的额外益处是否也适用于老年人，尤其是体弱的老年人，仍有待确定。
