Download or read book The Effect of Whole Body Vibration on Strength Gains in the Bench Press the Back Squat and the Power Clean in Division I Football Players written by Kelly Poppinga and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if whole body vibration effects strength gains in the bench press, the back squat, and the power clean in division 1 football players. Thirty-one NCAA Division 1 male football players volunteered for this study and were randomly assigned to a control group (C=16) or one of two vibration groups (V1=7, V2=8). Subjects followed the training program for eight weeks. A pre-test, mid-test, and post-test one repetition max was measured at 0, 4, and 8 weeks for the bench press, the back squat, and the power clean. A 3x3 factorial ANOVA revealed varied results between the three lifts performed. In the bench press, there were no significant differences in strength gains between the three training groups (F=.616, p=.547). In addition, there was no significant interaction (F=1.05, p=3.74). There were significant differences between trials in the bench press in strength gains (F=7.570, p=.006). In the back squat, there were no significant differences in strength gains between the three training groups (F=.847, p=.440). In addition, there were no significant differences in interaction (F=1.734, p=1.83). There were significant differences between trials in the back squat in strength gains (F=17.111, p

This book was released on 2010 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of the investigation was to examine the effects of Whole Body Vibration (WBV) on lower body strength and power as measured through estimated 1-RM back squat, standing long jump, and vertical counter-movement jump. Female (N = 9) collegiate Division III varsity softball players completed the training and testing protocol. Each subject completed 3 weeks of WBV training and 3 weeks of conventional strength training. All subjects were pretested to gather baseline values. Subjects were tested at week 4 and week 8 to measure percent change of testing values. Three 2 X 2 mixed factorial ANOVAs were computed for percent change in lower body strength and power. No significant difference (p > .05) was found between groups in percent change for standing long jump, vertical counter-movement jump, and estimated 1-RM back squat. No significant differences (p > .05) were found between groups and testing period in percent change for estimated 1-RM back squat, standing long jump, and vertical counter-movement jump.

Book Relationship Between Muscular Strength Testing to Dynamic Muscular Performance in Division One American Football Players

Download or read book Relationship Between Muscular Strength Testing to Dynamic Muscular Performance in Division One American Football Players written by Johnathan Fuentes and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to develop a prediction equation for (performance variables) vertical jump, broad jump, 40-yard sprint time, and pro-agility shuttle time using body mass and 1-RM values of strength for bench press and back squat. Participants (n = 76) used in the study were members of the University of South Florida D-1 football team in fall of 2009. Squat/BM demonstrated the strongest relationship in both correlation and multiple regression data for every performance variable. Squat 1-RM and Squat/BP indicated a decreased relationship and negative impact on performance. Results indicate that with increased Squat/BM improvement for all performance variables can be achieved. In addition analysis divided the entire football team into three positions (AT, LN, and SK), and noted differences for 10 of the possible 12 mean comparisons of performance variables.

Book Isokinetic Bench Press as a Criterion Measure of Upper Body Power in NCAA Division I College Football Player Starters and Non starters

Download or read book Isokinetic Bench Press as a Criterion Measure of Upper Body Power in NCAA Division I College Football Player Starters and Non starters written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the isokinetic bench press could discriminate football-playing ability and to correlate the isokinetic bench press with other commonly used football upper and lower body power tests. National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I collegiate football players aged 18-26 years were divided into two groups by player ability: starters (Group 2) and non-starters (Group 1). On separate days, subjects performed the vertical jump, 40-yard dash, one-repetition maximum (RM) bench press and isokinetic bench press at 60, 180 and 300°/s. Pearson Correlation Coefficient analysis revealed significant correlations among all measures in the present study (height, weight, isokinetic peak force at 60°/s, 180°/s and 300°/s, vertical jump, 1-RM bench press and 40-yard dash). Height and weight negatively correlated with all measures, except the 40-yard dash, indicating that taller and/or heavier football players produced higher (slower) 40-yard dash times. Three 1 x 2 ANOVA's (p

Book Effects of Whole Body Vibration and Progressive Resistance Exercise on Balance and Lower Extremity Strength

Download or read book Effects of Whole Body Vibration and Progressive Resistance Exercise on Balance and Lower Extremity Strength written by Nathan Dodge and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whole body vibration (WBV) is widely used as a mechanical stimulus for neuromuscular training, and to a lesser extent, in the treatment of patients undergoing physical rehabilitation. PURPOSE: To quantify any beneficial and/or synergistic effects associated with the longitudinal administration of WBV and progressive resistance (PRE) exercise on lower extremity strength development and postural stability. METHODS: We recruited 30 physically-active men (age, 22.2±3.2 yrs; hgt, 178.9±6.1 cm; mass, 75.8±7.2 kg) who had not participated in resistance training activities during the past 3 months and had no history of lower extremity injury. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: WBV = PRE squat exercises with WBV (n=10); NO WBV = PRE squat exercises without WBV (n=10), or CONTROL (n=10). For those in the WBV and NO WBV groups, the experimental treatment consisted of 24 sessions of progressively-loaded squat exercises (3 sessions per week x 8 weeks) using weighted vests. A computerized posturography device was used to administer the modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction on Balance (mCTSIB) that quantified sway velocity. An isokinetic dynamometer was used to obtain concentric and eccentric peak torque values at 60°/sec, 120°/sec and 180°/sec during a unilateral, closed kinetic chain (CKC) leg press. All groups were tested at entry (Week 0), midpoint (Week 4), and upon conclusion of the study (Week 8). RESULTS: The mCTSIB scores (foam box/eyes open condition) were significantly better in the WBV group compared to CONTROL when measured at Week 4 (WBV = 0.46±0.01°/sec, CONTROL = 0.56±0.01°/sec; p=0.004) and at Week 8 (WBV = 0.49±0.01°/sec, CONTROL = 0.55±0.12°/sec; p=0.036). For the right limb, concentric leg press peak torques (normalized to Nm/kg body mass) increased at 60o/sec from 0.84±0.43 Nm/kg at Week 0 to 1.10±0.47 Nm/kg at Week 8 (p=0.03), and at 180°/sec from 0.82±0.37 Nm/kg at Week 0 to 1.03±0.36 Nm/kg at Week 8 (p=0.018). There were no significant Group differences observed for any of the CKC leg press measures (p> 0.05). CONCLUSION: While the 8-week training protocol was shown to be an effective means of improving both postural stability and isokinetic leg press strength, long-term exposure to WBV did not enhance lower extremity strength acquisition among the participants.
