With resistance exercise, greater intensity typically elicits increased energy expenditure, but heavier loads require that the lifter perform more sets of fewer repetitions, which alters the kilograms lifted per set. Thus, the effect of exercise-intensity on energy expenditure has yielded varying results, especially with explosive resistance exercise. This study was designed to examine the effect of exercise-intensity and kilograms/set on energy expenditure during explosive resistance exercise. Ten resistance-trained men (22±3.6 years; 84±6.4 kg, 180±5.1 cm, and 13±3.8 %fat) performed squat and bench press protocols once/week using different exercise-intensities including 48% (LIGHT-48), 60% (MODERATE-60), and 72% of 1-repetition-maximum (1-RM) (HEAVY-72), plus …
Use Of Counter-Balanced Smith Machine Affects Performance Measurements For Rebound Bench Press Throws, Harsh Buddhadev, Anthony A. Duplanty, David W. Hill, Simon Driver, Noreen L. Goggin, Jakob L. Vingren
Use Of Counter-Balanced Smith Machine Affects Performance Measurements For Rebound Bench Press Throws, Harsh Buddhadev, Anthony A. Duplanty, David W. Hill, Simon Driver, Noreen L. Goggin, Jakob L. Vingren
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Rebound bench presses throws (RBT), often performed on a Smith machine, are used for assessment and training of upper body power. During a RBT, the stretch-shortening cycle potentiates performance in the concentric movement. Smith machines frequently utilize a counter-balance weight to reduce the net load on the barbell; however, the use of counter-balance weight affects measures of performance for RBT. PURPOSE: To evaluate how the use of a counter-balanced Smith machine affects performance measures for RBT. METHODS: Performance measures for the no counter-balanced (NCB) and counter-balanced (CB) RBT were assessed for 24 men (age: 23 ± 3 years, height: 179 …
Effect Of Using A Counter-Balanced Smith Machine On Performance Measurements For Concentric-Only Bench Press Throws, Anthony A. Duplanty, Harsh Buddhadev, David W. Hill, Simon Driver, Noreen Goggin, Jakob Vingren
Effect Of Using A Counter-Balanced Smith Machine On Performance Measurements For Concentric-Only Bench Press Throws, Anthony A. Duplanty, Harsh Buddhadev, David W. Hill, Simon Driver, Noreen Goggin, Jakob Vingren
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Bench press throws using a Smith machine are often used for assessment and training of upper body power. Concentric only bench press throws (CON-BT) provide important information on an individual’s ability to produce force from a static start. Smith machines often utilize a counter-balance weight system to reduce the net load on the barbell; however, it is not known how counter-balance weight affects measurements of performance during a CON-BT. PURPOSE: To examine the effect of a counter-balance weight on CON-BT performance measurements. METHODS: 24 men (age: 23 ± 3 years, height: 179 ± 6 cm, mass: 91 ± 17 kg, …
