Book Effect of Music Genre on Power Output During a Wingate Test

Download or read book Effect of Music Genre on Power Output During a Wingate Test written by Taylor Cochran and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been substantial evidence on the effects of music during moderate intensity exercise, however less attention has been given to the effects of music on performance during supra-maximal exercise. PURPOSE: To compare the effects of musical genre on power output during supra-maximal exercise testing. METHODS: Three genres of music (rock, dance and rap) all of similar tempo (120-155 beats per minute) were played during a supra-maximal exercise test (Wingate test). The Wingate test consisted of pedaling on a cycle ergometer as fast as possible for 30 seconds at a resistance determined from body mass. Peak anaerobic power (Pk-AnP), Fatigue Index (FI), and Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) were determined during the Wingate test. All genres were compared to a no music (CON) condition. RESULTS: A repeated measures analysis of variance (repeated-measures ANOVA) was performed to determine differences between music genres on power output. There was a difference between CON and each genre, but no differences in peak anaerobic power were seen between genres. CONCLUSION: Wingate peak anaerobic performance appears to be influenced more by the presence of music rather than the genre.

Book Listening to Music During a Repeated Sprint Test Improves Performance and Psychophysiological Responses in Healthy and Physically Active Male Adults

Download or read book Listening to Music During a Repeated Sprint Test Improves Performance and Psychophysiological Responses in Healthy and Physically Active Male Adults written by Nidhal Jebabli and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Background It is well-documented that listening to music has the potential to improve physical performance during intense physical exercise. Less information is available on the timing of music application. This study aimed to investigate the effects of listening to preferred music during the warm up of a subsequent test or during the test on performance of repeated sprint sets (RSS) in adult males. Methods In a randomized cross-over design, 19 healthy males (age, 22.1 ± 1.2 years; body mass, 72.7 ± 9.3 kg; height, 1.79 ± 0.06 m; BMI, 22.6 ± 2.2 kg m−2) performed a test including 2 sets of 5*20-m repeated-sprints under one of three conditions: listening to preferred music during the test; listening to preferred music during the warm-up; or not listening to music. The assessed parameters comprised RSS performance indices, blood lactate, heart rate, the pacing strategy profile, rating of perceived exertion, and a feeling scale. Results For performance indices during set 1 of the RSS test, we found a significant decrease in total sum sequence, fast time index and fatigue index in the listening to preferred music condition compared to the no music condition (total sum sequence: p = 0.006, d = 0.93; fast time index: p = 0.003, d = 0.67; fatigue index: p 0.001; d = 1.30) and the listening to preferred music during the warm-up condition (fast time index: p = 0.002; d = 1.15; fatigue index: p = 0.006; d = 0.74). However, there was no significant effect of listening to preferred music on physical performance during set 2 of the RSS test. Compared to the no music condition, blood lactate concentrations were higher in the listening to preferred music during the test condition (p = 0.025; d = 0.92). In addition, listening to preferred music appears not to have an effect on heart rate, the pacing strategy profile, perceived exertion, and affective responses before, during and after the RSS test.brbrConclusion

Book The Effects of Different Warm up Methods on Anaerobic Power

Download or read book The Effects of Different Warm up Methods on Anaerobic Power written by Bradley Kendall and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of various warm-up methods on Wingate Anaerobic Test performance. The goal of this study was to investigate how a general cycling warm-up, a dynamic stretching routine, a static stretching routine, and the combination of both static stretching followed by cycling and dynamic stretching followed by cycling affect WAnT performance. Ten recreationally active subjects, completed five WAnT on a Monark Ergomedic 984E cycle separated by at least 48 hours. Subjects were randomly assigned to an order of conditions and performed a different condition prior to each WAnT. The warm-up protocols consisted of static stretching protocol, dynamic stretching protocol, a cycling protocol, and the combination of both static stretching followed by cycling and dynamic stretching followed by cycling. Peak anaerobic power, mean anaerobic power, power drop, and percent fatigue were calculated following the completion of all five conditions. No significant statistical differences were found among the five conditions for any of the four measurements. In conclusion, various stretching and active warm-up methods prior to the WAnT did not increase or inhibit performance.
