Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Randomised flywheel half-squat exercise, with different combinations of three velocity losses thresholds (5%, 10% and 15%) and three external loads or moments of inertia (0.05 kg·m2, 0.10 kg·m2, and 0.15 kg·m2). More specifically, the combinations will be:
1. Combination 1: Velocity Loss 5%, 0.05 kg·m2 moment of inertia
2. Combination 2: Velocity Loss 5%, 0.10 kg·m2 moment of inertia
3. Combination 3: Velocity Loss 5%, 0.15 kg·m2 moment of inertia
4. Combination 4: Velocity Loss 10%, 0.05 kg·m2 moment of inertia
5. Combination 5: Velocity Loss 10%, 0.10 kg·m2 moment of inertia
6. Combination 6: Velocity Loss 10%, 0.15 kg·m2 moment of inertia
7. Combination 7: Velocity Loss 15%, 0.05 kg·m2 moment of inertia
8. Combination 8: Velocity Loss 15%, 0.10 kg·m2 moment of inertia
9. Combination 9: Velocity Loss 15%, 0.15 kg·m2 moment of inertia

Each participant will execute three combinations on a single session, repeated twice a week, with 48-72h interspersed (wash-out period). Each session will last about 60 min per participant, and the total intervention duration will be five weeks. Each session will be attended by pairs.
The flywheel device will be a cylindrical shaft FRTD (Kbox 3, Exxentrix, Sweeden), with a load range ranging from 0.005 to 0.300 kg·m2 and an axis radius width of 0.025 m, monitored with a rotary encoder (SmartCoach Lite, SmartCoach Tech, USA). The main intervention will be supervised by a sport scientist with expertise in the execution of resistance training with flywheel devices.

Comparator / control treatment
Because it is a cross-over design, each participant will serve as own reference comparator. The Combination 1: Velocity Loss 5%, 0.05 kg·m2 moment of inertia is considered as reference comparator.

Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
This study follows a crossover design with a repeating measures component, allowing participants to run the study under their own control. Allocation is not concealed.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Permuted block randomisation
