Selective effects of different fatigue protocols on the function of upper body muscles assessed through the force–velocity relationship
(Springer, 2018-02)
Purpose
This study explored the feasibility of the force–velocity relationship (F–V) to detect the acute effects of different fatigue protocols on the selective changes of the maximal capacities of upper body muscles to ...
Reliability and concurrent validity of the Velowin optoelectronic system to measure movement velocity during the free-weight back squat
(SAGE, 2018-10)
The objective of this study was to explore the reliability and concurrent validity of the Velowin optoelectronic system to measure movement velocity during the free-weight back squat exercise. Thirty-one men (age = 27.5 ± 3.2 ...
Effects of different conditioning programmes on the performance of high-velocity soccer-related tasks: Systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled trials
(SAGE, 2018-02)
Physical performance is a key factor in most of the actions that determine success in soccer competitions. The present meta-analysis aimed to determine whether, and to what extent different conditioning programmes implemented ...
Load–velocity profiling in the military press exercise: Effects of gender and training
(SAGE, 2018-10)
This study aimed (1) to analyze the accuracy of mean propulsive velocity to predict the percentage of the 1-repetition maximum in the seated military press exercise and (2) to test the effect of gender and of a resistance ...
Velocity loss thresholds reliably control kinetic and kinematic outputs during free weight resistance training
(International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020-09)
Exercise velocity and relative velocity loss thresholds (VLTs) are commonly used in velocity-based resistance training. This study aims to quantify the between-day reliability of 10%, 20%, and 30% VLTs on kinetic and ...
Movement velocity can be used to estimate the relative load during the bench press and leg press exercises in older women
(PeerJ, 2019-08-20)
Background: Movement velocity has been proposed as an effective tool to prescribe the load during resistance training in young healthy adults. This study aimed to elucidate whether movement velocity could also be used to ...
Effects of pre-activation with variable intra-repetition resistance on throwing velocity in female handball players: A methodological proposal
(Academy of Physical Education, 2021)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the acute effect of pre-activation with Variable Intra-Repetition
Resistance and isometry on the overhead throwing velocity in handball players. Fourteen female handball players ...
Comparison of the bench press one-repetition maximum obtained by different procedures: Direct assessment vs. lifts-to-failure equations vs. two-point method
(SAGE, 2020-06)
This study examined the differences in the bench press one-repetition maximum obtained by three different methods (direct method, lifts-to-failure method, and two-point method). Twenty young men were tested in four different ...
Effect of the level of effort during resistance training on intraocular pressure
(Routledge, 2019-03)
Background: We aimed to evaluate the influence of the level of effort during four basic resistance exercises leading to muscular failure on intraocular pressure (IOP) and ocular perfusion (OPP), as well as the role of ...
Reliability and validity of different methods of estimating the one-repetition maximum during the free-weight prone bench pull exercise
(Routledge, 2019-10)
This study examined the reliability and validity of three methods of estimating the one-repetition maximum (1RM) during the free-weight prone bench pull exercise. Twenty-six men (22 rowers and four weightlifters) performed ...
