This book was released on 2015 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of the study was to examine the acute effects of traditional sets (TS) or cluster sets (CS) on rate of power development (RPO), peak power (PP), and vertical jump height(VJ) in ten resistance trained males during 2 sets of 3 repetitions at 90% lRM. Session 1 determined 3-5RM back squat to predict lRM back squat. During sessions 2 and 3, back squats were performed either using TS or CS. RPO, PP, and VJ were measured over time for each condition. Significant differences for time (p .05) existed for RPO, PP, and VJ, all of which decreased. No difference (p .05) in RPO, PP, or VJ existed for condition. No interaction(p >.05) existed for RPO, PP, or CJ. TR and CS of 2 sets of 3 repetitions of back squat at 90%lRM had negative effects of RPO, PP, and VJ 30 s, 60s, and 2 min, after

Download or read book Effects of an Upper Body Conditioning Stimulus on Lower Body Post activation Potentiation written by Grant Laskin and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One strategy to improve strength and power development in athletes is by implementing complex training, where both high-load and plyometric movements are alternated one after the other throughout a workout. Research suggests that when a high-load, low-velocity conditioning stimulus (CS) is performed just prior to a biomechanically similar plyometric movement, the performance of the plyometric movement is acutely enhanced in a phenomenon called post-activation potentiation (PAP). Despite the positive influence PAP can have on power production, research has only investigated the existence of PAP when comparing biomechanically similar movements. PURPOSE: To determine if an upper body CS can elicit a PAP response in a lower body plyometric exercise and to investigate the optimal time course for PAP between an upper body CS and lower body plyometric exercise. METHODS: Eight (8) resistance-trained males (23.5 ± 2.7 y; 177.5 ± 3.2 cm; 81.7 ± 5.8 kg) participated in the study. Participants performed one set of three countermovement jumps (CMJs) before (pre-CS) and three sets of three CMJs after (post-CS) an upper body CS. Muscle activation in the vastus lateralis, gastrocnemius, and gluteus maximus were compared between pre-CS and the three post-CS conditions using surface electromyography. Changes in jump height, work, power output, and rate of force development (RFD) during the early and late stages of the CMJ take-off between the conditions were analyzed using a force plate. A repeated-measures MANOVA with LSD post-hoc testing was used to determine differences using SPSS. The level of significance was set at p

This book was released on 2018 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Intra workout and intra set rest and recovery are not as prevalent in modern research as variations in volume or intensity. However, that does not mean that rest strategies are not important factors to be considered when planning a training plan. The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of four rest strategies on vertical jump height, peak power, and cumulative power over multiple jumps. Data were collected from 18 resistance and power trained males, age 18 - 30, (mean age 24, mean weight 81.85 kg). Participants had a total of 5 sessions, one baseline session, and one session per rest strategy. Each session participants completed a standardized warm up, then, jumped for five sets of three jumps interspersed with the rest strategy of the day. There were no significant differences amongst the rest strategies for peak or cumulative power. For vertical jump, sitting for three minutes and walking for one minute both produced significantly greater vertical jump heights than walking for three minutes (139.27 ± 20.42 cm and 139.66 ± 21.62 cm respective, compared with 131.48 ± 21.41 cm of walking for three minutes). To optimize vertical jump recovery, athletes should have a longer, passive rest, or, a shorter, low impact rest.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Complex Training on lower body power, measured by vertical jump, following a six week program. Furthermore, the project was also aimed at determining whether it matters that the first exercise in the complex set is a strength or power exercise. Thirty-six recreationally trained men and women ages twenty to twenty-nine years, from a college physical education course, were randomly assigned to three groups: squat and countermovement squat jumps, kettlebell swings and countermovement squat jumps, and a control group which did not participate in complex training throughout the six weeks. All participants were pre and post tested in vertical jump. The results reveal a statistically significant main effect difference in pre-post vertical jump measures within each group (p

This book was released on 2015 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT:The purpose of the present study was to examine the acute effects of traditional and cluster training on post¬ activation potentiation during countermovement vertical displacement. Division III male volleyball players completed two initial testing sessions to identify the maximum countermovement vertical jump (CMVJ), as well as the predicted 1 repetition maximum (1RM) on the hang power clean(HPC) and front squat (FS) exercises. Additionally, the predicted 1RM values were utilized to identify the optimal load for Peak Power in the respective exercises. The four testing days occurred in a randomized-crossover fashion with the participants performing four different exercise configurations comprised of HPC Traditional 4 sets of 3 repetitions with CMVJ recorded after each set, HPC Cluster 4sets of 3 repetitions with 12 s rest between repetitions and CMVJ recorded after each set, and the same occurred for each configuration utilizing the FS exercise. There were no significant mean differences in CMVJ between the 5 testing conditions. Effect sizes were computed comparing CMVJ for each training configuration with the baseline CMVJ. Cohen's d effect sizes for each training configuration compared to baseline were: TR-HPC = moderate effect, CL-HPC = moderate effect, TR-FS low effect and CL-FS = low

As with previous editions, the fourth edition includes comprehensive tables that compare data and conclusions from research on core topics related to design of resistance training programs. By summarizing research and content for the reader, these tables offer a study guide, on-the-job reference, or starting point for further research. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, is the only resource available that presents the body of research in the field in this organized and comprehensive format. The fourth edition has been thoroughly revised to present the most current information while retaining the studies that are the basis for concepts, guidelines, and applications in resistance training. Meticulously updated and heavily referenced, the fourth edition contains the following updates: • A full-color interior provides stronger visual appeal for the text. • Sidebars focus on a specific practical question or an applied research concept, allowing readers to connect research to real-life situations. • Multiple detailed tables summarize research from the text, offering an easy way to compare data and conclusions. • A glossary makes it simple to find key terms in one convenient location. • Newly added instructor ancillaries make the fourth edition a true learning resource for the classroom. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, begins by outlining the principles of resistance training and exercise prescription, and examines the various types of strength training, including isometrics and eccentric training. This is followed by a discussion of resistance training from a physiological perspective and an overview of how resistance training programs interact with the other conditioning components such as aerobic, interval, plyometric, and flexibility training. Readers will then explore advanced training techniques, how to manipulate training variables in a long-term resistance training program, and ways to plan rest into long-term training that minimizes losses in fitness or performance gains. An important text for students, researchers, and practitioners, this textbook offers the information and tools to help readers evaluate resistance training programs and better understand the context and efficacy of new data findings in this ever-changing field. Designing Resistance Training Programs, Fourth Edition, is an essential resource for understanding the science behind resistance training and designing evidence-based resistance training programs for any population.

Download or read book Effects of Static Countermovement and Drop Jump Performance on Power and Rate of Force Development in 6 16 Year Old Boys written by Lacey E. Jahn and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of static, counter movement, and drop jump performance on peak power and peak rate of force development (RFD). The secondary purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between vertical jump outcomes, maturity offset, and muscle cress-sectional area (CSA). During a single testing session, twenty-one young males (mean age ± SD = 12.1 ± 2.4 yrs) performed maximal vertical jumps which included: static jump (SJ), counter movement jump (CMJ), and drop jump from 8 (DJ8), 12 (DJ12) and 16 (DJ16) inches in a randomized order. Peak power increased from SJ to CMJ (p ≤ 0.001) but showed no subsequent increases among CMJ, DJ8, DJ12, or DJ16. RFD and force showed no increase from SJ to CMJ (p > 0.05), an increase from CMJ to DJ8 (p ≤ 0.001), but no further increases from DJ8 to DJ12 to DJ16 (p > 0.05). Eccentric impulse increased systematically from SJ to DJ16 (p ≤ 0.001). Concentric impulse increased from SJ to CMJ (p ≤ 0.001), decreased from CMJ to DJ8 (p = 0.003), then showed no change from DJ8 to DJ12 to DJ16 (p > 0.05). Stepwise regression indicated that the increase in power from SJ to CMJ was best explained by height (R2 = 0.517). These findings suggest CMJ is the optimal jump test for maximizing peak power and concentric work, while minimizing eccentric overload in male of a similar age to this study. Additionally, growth and development may influence stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) utilization. Future studies are needed to examine the influence of PHV maturity offset and increased muscle CSA on SSC utilization in this model of incremental eccentric pre-loading during vertical jump tests.

Download or read book The Influence of a Resistance Training Apparatus on Vertical Jump and 40 yard Sprint Performance written by Michael Rebold and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose & Hypothesis: This research study was designed to examine the influence of an eight week, two sessions per week, training program incorporating use of the resistance training apparatus compared with a complex training program only on power. It was hypothesized that training with the resistance training apparatus would lead to greater improvements in the vertical jump compared with complex training. Participants: Twenty one, male and female participants, between the ages of 18-25, participated in a ten week study. Participants were eligible if they had no contraindications to exercise, were injury free, and within the past six months participated in regular plyometric and resistance training. Participants were instructed to continue their normal daily activities outside of the study. It was also advised that all participants maintain their current diet and that they refrain from using any performance enhancing supplements. All participants were informed about the experiment procedures and about the potential risks and benefits associated with the study, and signed an informed consent form, Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (Par-Q), and a Godin Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (Godin, 1997) before participation. Participants were randomly assigned to a control group that did not participate in any exercises, an apparatus + exercise group, or an exercise group that performed the same exercises without the resistance training apparatus. Program Design:The design was an eight week plyometric and resistance training program. Pre- and Post-testing were completed during week one and ten, respectively. Total body power was measured by using the vertical jump test with countermovement arm swing. Velocity was also measured by using the 40-yard sprint. Weeks two through nine consisted of two workouts per week with both the apparatus + exercise and exercise groups intermixed. Sessions were divided into two groups, a morning and an evening Tuesday-Thursday group. Each group had approximately 48 hours in between workout sessions. Overall workout length was approximately 50 minutes, including a five minute warm-up, 40 minute plyometric and resistance training workout, and a five minute cool down. The warm-up consisted of two laps around a 200-meter track and static stretching of all the major muscle groups. Plyometric workouts consisted of four plyometric exercises including: depth jumps, box jumps, squat jumps, and calf jumps. The format for the sets being performed for the plyometric exercises were two weeks of each 12, 10, 8, and 6 repetitions. Resistance training workouts consisted of the parallel squat, hamstring curls, quadriceps extensions, and forward lunges. The format for the sets being performed for the resistance training exercises were two weeks of each 10, 8, 6 and 4 repetitions. The exercise group performed sets at 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, and 85% in successive weeks (weeks 2-8). The apparatus + exercise group performed sets at 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70% and 75% in successive weeks. The cool down followed the same protocol as the warm-up. Content of the workouts varied from week-to-week by using a variety of intensities and recovery times. Results: Statistical analysis was performed using a Repeated Measures ANOVA, assessing differences within groups and between groups over time. Results showed no significant difference from pre- to post-test in vertical jump (p = .03) and 40-yard sprint (p = .09). In the vertical jump from pre- to post-test the control group decreased by 3 inches, the apparatus + exercise group increased by 5 inches, and the exercise group increased by 1 inch. In the 40-yard sprint from pre- to post-test the control group decreased by 0.32 seconds, the apparatus + exercise group decreased by 0.09 seconds. And the exercise group decreased by 0.67 seconds. Summary: Duration may have not been long enough, flaws in the adjustment protocol, and the participants were already physically active prior to the start of the study. These aspects may have contributed to none of the results being significant from pre- to post-testing. Future research should focus on increasing the duration of the training period, examining the effect of variety of exercises to determine if different types of exercises may elicit different results, establishing an adjustment protocol, and replication of the study to observe training effects on males vs. females, trained athletes, and untrained individuals.
