Summary
This study looks at how many extra repetitions older adults can do after they first feel moderate muscle discomfort until they can't continue with proper form. Researchers want to know if stopping at discomfort can still build muscle, making strength training more appealing for people aged 60-80. Fifteen participants will do bodyweight squats and push-ups while muscle activity is measured.
