Let the Pleasure Guide Your Resistance Training Intensity

imagePurpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and reliability of the Feeling Scale (FS) to self-regulate resistance training (RT) intensity. Methods Sixteen sedentary men (39.7 ± 7.5 yr) performed 3 familiarization sessions, 2 one-repetition maximum (1RM) testing, and 16 RT sessions (four sessions for each FS descriptor; randomized). The FS descriptors were "very good" (FS + 5), "good" (FS + 3), "fairly good" (FS + 1), and "fairly bad" (FS − 1). Resistance exercises were leg press, chest press, knee extension, and seated biceps curl. Participants were instructed to select a load associated with the verbal/numerical descriptor of the FS to perform three sets of 10 repetitions. Results Participants lifted a significantly greater %1RM as the FS level decreased from FS + 5 to FS − 1 (P
