Different Resistance Training Intensity Prescription and Monitoring Methodologies: Effects on Strength, Body Composition, and Well-being in Survivors of Breast Cancer
Sponsor: Universidad de Almeria
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of three different methods of prescribing and monitoring resistance training intensity on muscle strength, body composition, quality of life, fatigue, anxiety, and depression in breast cancer survivors.

Conditions
Interventions
Daily load-velocity-based training intensity adjustment.
At the beginning of the training session, the one-repetition maximum (1RM) will be estimated based on the individual's load-velocity relationship, using the general velocity associated with the 1RM for the exercises included in the session. Additionally, during the training sessions, intensity will be monitored, and load will be adjusted in real time by movement velocity.
Training intensity prescription based on an initial 1RM estimation using load-velocity relationship
In the first training session, the one-repetition maximum (1RM) will be estimated based on the individual's load-velocity relationship, using the general velocity associated with the 1RM for the exercises included in the session. This 1RM will be used to prescribe exercise intensity throughout the intervention.
Traditional training with intensity prescription based on 1RM testing.
The traditional training group will follow a training program using the traditionally employed methodology for assessing and prescribing training intensity in breast cancer survivors. This methodology is based on an initial 1RM estimation conducted through a 1RM test, which will be used to prescribe the training load throughout the intervention.
