- PublicationChanges in bench press performance and throwing velocity after strength-oriented and ballistic resistance training programs(Edizioni Minerva Medica, 2020)
; ;GarcĆa-Ramos, Amador ;Janicijevic, Danica ;PĆ©rez-Castilla, AlejandroChirosa-RĆos, LuisBackground: This study aimed to compare the effect of two upper-body resistance training programs (strength-oriented vs. ballistic) on bench press (BP) performance and handball throwing velocity (HTV). Methods: Thirty resistance-trained males were randomly assigned to a strength-oriented training group (STG) or a ballistic training group (BTG). The study consisted of 11 sessions: 2 pre-tests (week 1), 8 training sessions (weeks 2-5), and 1 post-test (week 6). The STG performed the BP at the 70-90% of the one-repetition maximum (1RM), and the BTG the BP throw at the 40% of 1RM. BP performance (BP 1RM and maximum velocity achieved against 20 kg [BP20]) and HTV were assessed before and after training. Results: The STG enhanced BP 1RM (effect size [ES]=0.24) but not BP20 (ES=0.21) or HTV (ES=0.10). The BTG enhanced BP20 (ES=0.63) but not BP1RM (ES=0.27) or HTV (ES=0.02). HTV was not significantly correlated with the BP 1RM (rā¤0.181) or BP20 (rā¤0.220). Conclusions: These results indicate that a short-term RT program based exclusively on the BP exercise performed against either heavy (strength-oriented) or light loads (ballistic) is not effective to increase HTV in resistance-trained men with little handball experience. - PublicationEffect of traditional, cluster, and rest redistribution set configurations on neuromuscular and perceptual responses during strength-oriented resistance training(National Strength and Conditioning Association, 2022)
; ;GarcĆa-Ramos, Amador ;Jukic, Ivan ;Chirosa-RĆos, Luis ;GonzĆ”lez-HernĆ”ndez, Jorge ;Janicijevic, Danica ;Barboza-GonzĆ”lez, PaolaGuede-Rojas, FranciscoThis study aimed to compare the acute effect of traditional (TR), cluster (CL), and rest redistribution (RR) set configurations on neuromuscular and perceptual measures of fatigue. Thirty-one resistance-trained men randomly performed a Control session and 3 experimental sessions consisting of the squat (SQ) and bench press (BP) exercises performed against the 10 repetition maximum load using TR (3 sets of 6 repetitions; 3 minutes of interset rest), CL (3 sets of 6 repetitions; 30 seconds of intraset rest every 2 repetitions; 3 minutes of interset rest), and RR (9 sets of 2 repetitions; 45 seconds of interset rest) set configurations. A significant effect of āset configurationā (p = 0.002) was observed for barbell velocity. The average velocity of the training session was lower for TR compared with CL (% difference = 5.09% in SQ and 5.68% in BP) and RR (% difference = 5.92% in SQ and 2.71% in BP). The 3 set configurations induced comparable decrements in countermovement jump height (% difference from ā6.0% to ā8.1%) and throwing velocity (% difference from ā0.6% to ā1.2%). Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE-10) values collected after the sets were higher for TR (SQ: 6.9 Ā± 0.7 a.u.; BP: 6.8 Ā± 0.8 a.u.) compared with CL (SQ: 6.2 Ā± 0.8 a.u.; BP: 6.4 Ā± 0.7 a.u.) and RR (SQ: 6.2 Ā± 0.8 a.u.; BP: 6.6 Ā± 0.9 a.u.), while the session RPE did not differ between the set configurations (p = 0.595). CL and RR set configurations allow for higher velocities and lower RPE values during resistance training sessions not performed to failure in comparison with a TR set configuration. - PublicationReliability of throwing velocity during non-specific and specific handball throwing tests(Thieme, 2021)
; ; ;GarcĆa-Ramos, Amador ;Chirosa-Rios, Luis ;MartĆnez-GarcĆa, Dario ;Andrades-RamĆrez, OscarMartinez-Martin, IsidoroThrowing velocity is one of the most important factors for scoring goals in handball. This study aimed to identify the type of throw and procedure for selecting the final test outcome that provide throwing velocity with the greatest reliability. Fifteen experienced handball players and 33 non-experienced participants were tested in two sessions. Each session consisted of 4 trials of 3 different throwing tests (unspecific, 7-meters, and 3-steps). The maximum value of 4 trials, average value of 4 trials, and average value of the 3 best trials were considered. Throwing velocity was highly reliable (coefficient of variation [CV]ā¤3.3%, intraclass correlation coefficientā„0.89) with the exception of the unspecific throw for the non-experienced group (CVā„5.9%, intraclass correlation coefficientā¤0.56). The 3-steps throw (CV=1.7%) was more reliable than the 7-meters throw (CV=2.1%) (CVratio=1.19) and unspecific throw (CVā= 3.8%) (CVratio=2.18), the 3 procedures provided a comparable reliability (CV range=2.4ā2.6%; CVratioā¤1.07), and the experienced group (CV=1.0%) presented a higher reliability than the non-experienced group (CV=4.0%) (CVratio=3.83). These results support the 3-steps throw to maximise the reliability of throwing velocity performance. - PublicationEffect of resistance-training programs differing in set configuration on maximal strength and explosive-action performance(Human Kinetics, 2021)
; ;Jukic, Ivan ;GonzĆ”lez HernĆ”ndez, Jorge Miguel ;Janicijevic, Danica ;Barboza GonzĆ”lez, Paola ;Chirosa RĆos, Luis JavierGarcĆa-Ramos, AmadorPurpose: To compare the effects of 2 upper-body strength-training programs differing in set configuration on bench press 1-repetition maximum (BP1RM), bench press throw peak velocity against 30 kg (BPT30), and handball throwing velocity. Methods: Thirty-five men were randomly assigned to a traditional group (TRG; nā=ā12), rest redistribution group (RRG; nā=ā13), or control group (nā=ā10). The training program was conducted with the bench press exercise and lasted 6 weeks (2 sessions per week): TRGā6 setsāĆā5 repetitions with 3 minutes of interset rest; RRGā1 setāĆā30 repetitions with 31 seconds of interrepetition rest. The total rest period (15 min) and load intensity (75% 1RM) were the same for both experimental groups. Subjects performed all repetitions at maximal intended velocity, and the load was adjusted on a daily basis from velocity recordings. Results: A significant timeāĆāgroup interaction was observed for both BP1RM and BPT30 (Pā<ā.01) due to the higher values observed at posttest compared with pretest for TRG (effect size [ES]ā=ā0.77) and RRG (ESā=ā0.56ā0.59) but not for the control group (ESāā¤ā0.08). The changes in BP1RM and BPT30 did not differ between TRG and RRG (ESā=ā0.04 and 0.05, respectively). No significant differences in handball throwing velocity were observed between the pretest and posttest (ESā=ā0.16, 0.22, and 0.02 for TRG, RRG, and control group, respectively). Conclusions: Resistance-training programs based on not-to-failure traditional and rest redistribution set configurations induce similar changes in BP1RM, BPT30, and handball throwing velocity. - PublicationReliability and validity of different methods of estimating the one-repetition maximum during the free-weight prone bench pull exercise(Routledge, 2019)
;GarcĆa-Ramos, Amador ;Barboza GonzĆ”lez, Paola; ;Rodriguez Perea, Angela ;Martinez Garcia, DarĆo ;Guede Rojas, Francisco ;Hinojosa Riveros, Hans ;Chirosa RĆos, Luis Javier; ;Janicijevic, DanicaWeakley, JonathonThis 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 an incremental loading test until reaching their 1RM, followed by a set of repetitions-to-failure. Eighteen participants were re-tested to conduct the reliability analysis. The 1RM was estimated through the lifts-to-failure equations proposed by Lombardi and O'Connor, general load-velocity (L-V) relationships proposed by SĆ”nchez-Medina and Loturco and the individual L-V relationships modelled using four (multiple-point method) or only two loads (two-point method). The direct method provided the highest reliability (coefficient of variation [CV] = 2.45% and intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.97), followed by the Lombardi's equation (CV = 3.44% and ICC = 0.94), and no meaningful differences were observed between the remaining methods (CV range = 4.95-6.89% and ICC range = 0.81-0.91). The lifts-to-failure equations overestimated the 1RM (3.43-4.08%), the general L-V relationship proposed by SĆ”nchez-Medina underestimated the 1RM (-3.77%), and no significant differences were observed for the remaining prediction methods (-0.40-0.86%). The individual L-V relationship could be recommended as the most accurate method for predicting the 1RM during the free-weight prone bench pull exercise.
