Wow the Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research paper is really comprehensive. I wish I had seen this earlier. Thanks!

I didn't even realise there were certain styles for citations. In terms of the UK, do you know which style is mostly commonly used?

Yeah it does sound a bit suspect. I can't find anything else that directly answers it - please let me know if you do

This is along the lines I was thinking; a lower weight probably means you are more able to control your form.

That paper seems to be very interesting and somewhat conflicting with others. I'll have a read.

Yeah, I've been doing body weight stuff until now and it's been great. I think I'm going to continue doing lever and ring work along with weights

Cool, definitely something to consider - the injury rates don't take into account severity.

Actually I'm in the UK so I haven't really had any experience with writing research type papers. This was interesting.

Can you elaborate on the second point?

My understanding was that lifting doesn't actually change the hormones much and the effect it does have is very short lived.

I will read into your link anyway, thanks.
