The evidence is particularly convincing when lower-frequency RT is associated with a total-body training protocol in well-trained male subjects. Strength of Recommendation There is moderate-to-strong evidence to suggest that lower-frequency RT, when volume is equated, will produce equal to greater improvements on muscular strength and hypertrophy in comparison to higher-frequency RT.CONTEXT Sport specialization among youth athletes has been associated with increased risk of overuse injuries. Previous research demonstrates that children perceive specialization to be beneficial in making their high school team and receiving athletic college scholarships. Previous research demonstrates that parents play a significant role in their child's sport experience. However, it is unknown if parents and children answer questions related to specialization factors in a similar manner. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the beliefs of youth athletes and parents on factors related to sport specialization and evaluate the level of agreement between dyads on sports specialization. DESIGN Cross-sectional. SETTING Online and paper surveys. PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS Aim 1 1998 participants (993 children and 1005 parents). Aim 2 77 paired parent-child dyads. INTERVENTIONS Self-administered survey. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The responses were summarized via frequency and proportions (%). Chi-squares were calculated between parent and child responses. Kappa coefficients were calculated for dyads to determine level of agreement. Sport specialization was classified using a common 3-point scale. RESULTS The parents were more concerned about risk of injury in sports compared with children (P 8 months per year in primary sport" (κ = .32). CONCLUSIONS Par
