Cluster set loading in the back squat: Kinetic and kinematic implications. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000–000, 2018—As athletes become well trained, they require greater stimuli and variation to force adaptation. One means of adding additional variation is the use of cluster loading. Cluster loading involves introducing interrepetition rest during a set, which in theory may allow athletes to train at higher absolute intensities for the same volume. The purpose of this study was to investigate the kinetic and kinematic implications of cluster loading as a resistance training programming tactic compared with traditional loading (TL). Eleven resistance-trained men (age = …
A Comparison Of Muscular Activation During The Back Squat And Deadlift To The Countermovement Jump, David Robbins Cscs, Nasm-Cpt
A Comparison Of Muscular Activation During The Back Squat And Deadlift To The Countermovement Jump, David Robbins Cscs, Nasm-Cpt
SHU Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the back squat (BS) or deadlift (DL) is most similar to the countermovement jump (CMJ) in terms of peak muscular activation. The muscles assessed in this study were the erector spinae (ES), gluteus maximus (GM), biceps femoris (BF), vastus medialis (VM), and gastrocnemius (GN). These five muscles were chosen do to their involvement in all of these exercises. Ten college-aged males (24±1.18yrs) with a minimum of 1 year strength training experience volunteered for this study. Participants must have been strength trained and could BS and DL 1.5 x bodyweight. Results showed …
The Acute Effect Of Self-Myofascial Release On Lower Extremity Plyometric Performance, Brian J. Fama, David R. Bueti
The Acute Effect Of Self-Myofascial Release On Lower Extremity Plyometric Performance, Brian J. Fama, David R. Bueti
SHU Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the acute effect of a Foam Roller (FR) warm up routine and a dynamic warm-up routine on strength, power, and reactive power using a squat jump (SJ) countermovement jump (CMJ) and depth jump (DJ). Nine college aged recreational males with a minimum of 1-year experience in plyometric training completed the study. Following baseline testing, subjectswere randomly assigned to a warm up protocol on the second session of the study and then completed the otherprotocol on the third day of the study. The best of three jumps were recorded. RMANOVA revealed a significant …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation attenuates indirect indicators of muscle damage during endurance exercise as compared with an isocaloric, carbohydrate (CHO) beverage or a noncaloric placebo (PLAC) beverage. Nine untrained men performed three 90-min cycling bouts at 55% VO2peak. Subjects, blinded to beverage selection, ingested a total of 200 kcal of energy via the CHO or BCAA beverage before and at 60 min of exercise, or they drank the PLAC beverage. Creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), isokinetic leg-extension and -flexion torque, and muscle soreness were assessed before and …

Objective: To determine the effects of Vicoprofen® and ibuprofen on aerobic performance, agility, and pain after exercise-induced muscle damage. Design: Double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled, repeated-dose clinical trial. Setting: Human-performance and sports-medicine laboratory. Participants: 36 healthy men. Methods and Measures: Baseline testing was performed, 72 hours after which subjects performed eccentric exercise to induce muscle damage. They were evaluated for pain 24 hours postdamage and placed randomly into 3 groups: Vicoprofen (VIC), ibuprofen, or placebo (P). Postdamage testing was performed every day for 5 days. Subjects performed an economy run and a t-agility test to determine exercise performance. Results: The drugs had …
