Effects of internal kinetics and muscle activity during the wide and narrow barbell back squat
2017
Lahti, J. 2017. Effects of internal kinetics and muscle activity during the wide and narrow barbell back squat. Sports biology department, University of Jyväskylä. Master’s thesis. p. 102 (4 attachments). Introduction. The barbell back squat (BBS) is a commonly utilized strength exercise to support general preparedness for the demands in multiple sports. Recently, studies have shown various strength training exercises have the potential to recruit the regions of the hamstrings differently. Specifically, it is unknown if changing stance width under conditions where forward knee movement is restricted engages the hamstring regions differently and how this corresponds with measured 3-D net joi…
Acute Effects of High-intensity Resistance Exercise on Cognitive Function
2021
The purpose of the present study was to examine the influence of an acute bout of high-intensity resistance exercise on measures of cognitive function. Ten men (Mean ± SD: age = 24.4 ± 3.2 yrs; body mass = 85.7 ± 11.8 kg; height = 1.78 ± 0.08 m; 1 repetition maximum (1RM) = 139.0 ± 24.1 kg) gave informed consent and performed a high-intensity 6 sets of 10 repetitions of barbell back squat exercise at 80% 1RM with 2 minutes rest between sets. The Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics (ANAM) was completed to assess various cognitive domains during the familiarization period, immediately before, and immediately after the high-intensity resistance exercise bout. The repeated measures …
