摘要
背景:有效实施速度监测阻力训练(RT)需要选择适当的方法,特别是在老年人中。目前的研究比较了两种不同的开始执行技术的重复速度模式的差异-偏心同心和仅同心-在老年人的腿部按压(LP)和胸部按压(CP)的RT组中。方法:18名参与者(67%女性,79±10岁)接受了为期6周的干预,前两周致力于熟悉和负荷-速度分析。从第3周到第6周,参与者完成了每周两次的训练,分别以一次重复最大值(1RM)的40%、50%、60%和70%进行两组10次重复,只是在开始执行技术上有所不同。结果:在LP的所有相对载荷下,偏心-同心技术在第一次重复时的平均速度值比仅同心技术高(平均差值:0.09±0.07 m·s- 1; p - 1; p 0.05),并且在整个集合中几乎所有后续重复的平均速度值。离心-同心技术的重复速度模式较单纯同心技术的重复速度模式稳定(R2: 0.78 ~ 0.97), R2: 0.01 ~ 0.52。在同心技术下,重复速度最快的是第二次重复(67.5%),而在偏心同心技术下,重复速度最快的是第一次重复(42%)。结论:上述研究结果表明,阻力机中采用的初始执行技术显著影响老年人第一次重复的平均速度,使用偏心-同心技术达到的速度更高。因此,老年人基于速度的RT方案应该考虑到机器练习的开始执行技术,以优化负荷监测和训练处方的有效性。
Repetition velocity during the leg and chest press in older adults: influence of starting execution technique.
Background: Effectively implementing velocity-monitored resistance training (RT) requires selecting appropriate methodologies, particularly in older adults. The current study compares the differences in repetition velocity patterns with two different starting execution techniques - eccentric-concentric vs. concentric-only - during RT sets in the leg press (LP) and chest press (CP) in older adults.
Methods: Eighteen participants (67% female; 79 ± 10 years) underwent a 6-week intervention, with the first two weeks dedicated to familiarization and load-velocity profiling. From weeks 3 to 6, participants completed two weekly RT sessions, performing two sets of ten repetitions at 40, 50, 60, and 70% of their one-repetition maximum (1RM), only differing in the starting execution techniques.
Results: The eccentric-concentric technique resulted in higher mean velocity values during the first repetition compared to the concentric-only technique across all relative loads in the LP (average difference: 0.09 ± 0.07 m·s- 1; p < 0.001; g = 0.84) and CP (average difference: 0.07 ± 0.06 m·s- 1; p < 0.001; g = 0.70). No differences were found between execution techniques in the fastest repetition of the set (all p > 0.05) and the mean velocity of almost all subsequent repetitions throughout the set. The pattern of repetition velocity was more stable with the eccentric-concentric technique (R2: 0.78-0.97) than with the concentric-only technique (R2: 0.01-0.52). The fastest repetition typically occurred in the second repetition (67.5%) under the concentric-only technique, but in the first repetition (42%) under the eccentric-concentric technique.
Conclusions: These findings indicate that the initial execution technique adopted in resistance machines significantly impacts the mean velocity of the first repetition among older adults, with higher velocities reached using the eccentric-concentric technique. Therefore, velocity-based RT protocols for older adults should account for starting execution techniques in machine exercises to optimize load monitoring and training prescription effectiveness.
