Resistance training periodisation. Fam, familiarisation period; RIR, repetitions in reserve. The initial 2 weeks of the intervention constitutes a familiarisation period with thorough instruction to each exercise and reduced intensity. The remaining intervention period is divided into blocks ensuring progression towards less repetitions with higher loads. The resistance training frequency for high exercise dose (HED) and moderate exercise dose (MED) are two and one time per week, respectively. RIR tests will be performed four times during the intervention to ensure that participants train with the prescribed intensity
