The objective was to compare the morphological adaptations and the capacity to generate force promoted by the tensional versus metabolic resistance exercise. The sample consisted of 28 men, between 18 and 45 years old, resistance exercise practitioners divided into two groups. Anthropometric evaluation and maximal strength test were performed before and at the end of the training period. The hypertrophic responses were intensified by the metabolic method and the ability to generate force by the tension-base method. Thus, it is concluded that the morphological adaptations and the capacity to generate force are dependent on the application and control characteristics of the load, in other works, the applied method.
