| Summary: | The aim of the study was to analyze the effects of training protocol on maximal power during concentric phase of movement. Changes in maximal power were studied in individuals subjected to conventional strength training and strength training using TENDO destabilizers limiting barbell stability in recreational trainees without prior strength training experience.
The study contains 3 randomized groups, 2 experimental and 1 control. After 4 weeks of the training program, the subjects underwent a retest following the same protocol as prior to the experiment. During bench press and bench pull, peak maximal power and peak velocity were recorded, along with an average for each repetition and for the series of six repetitions.
After 4 weeks of the training program, subjects from group A and B showed a significant improvement in best bench pull and press. The relative improvement in power in experimental group with destabilizers was 18% (p ≤ 0.05), significantly higher compared to group without destabilizers (12%, p ≤ 0.05).
The hereby presented results document the effectiveness of power-oriented training with destabilizers. The improvement observed in the experimental group was most evident in the case of bench pull power. The use of destabilizers is an effective method for improving power, especially in bench pull exercises. This training method also effectively develops stabilization, coordination, and movement control under conditions of reduced barbell stability. |
