Abstract

Presently the degree to which peak force influences power production or explosive performance such as strength training movements or throwing (shot-put and weight-throw) is unclear. This study describes the relationships between a measure of maximum strength, isometric peak force (IPF), dynamic peak force (PF), peak power (PP), the 1-repetition movement power snatch (SN), and throwing ability over an 8-week training period. Five male and 6 female (n = 11) well-trained collegiate throwers participated. PF was measured using an AMTI force plate; PP was measured using an infrared-ultrasonic tracking device (V-Scope, Lipman Electronics). Clean pulls from the midthigh position were assessed isometrically and dynamically at a constant load, 30% and 60% of IPF. Specific explosive strength was evaluated using an SN and using the shot-put (SP) and weight-throw (WGT) measured under meet conditions. Variables (PF, PP, SN) were assessed 3 times at 0 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks. Each measurement period preceded a field meet by 3 days. Peak force, peak rate of force development, and PP increased over the 8 weeks. Correlation coefficients (r) indicate that IPF is strongly related to dynamic PF and PP 30%, 60% of the IPF. Furthermore, strong correlations were found for the SN and the distance for the SP and WGT, and these relationships tended to increase over time. Results suggest that maximum strength (i.e., IPF) is strongly associated with dynamic PF. In addition, maximum strength is stron…

  • In other whole-body sporting movements such as the tennis swing, throwing a javelin or shot-put, research has highlighted the importance of the force contribution of the legs to performance.

    “However, in other whole-body sporting movements such as the tennis swing (20), throwing a javelin (4) or shot-put (42), research has highlighted the importance of the force contribution of the legs to performance.”

  • Multiple shorter and long-term safety studies have reported no apparent side effects from creatine supplementation and/or that creatine monohydrate may lessen the incidence of injury during training.

    “Although concerns have been raised about the safety and possible side effects of creatine supplementation [189, 190], multiple shorter [191–193] and long-term safety studies have reported no apparent side effects [188, 194, 195] and/or that creatine monohydrate may lessen the incidence of injury during training [196–199].”
  • The effects of HMB supplementation in trained athletes are less clear with selected studies reporting non-significant gains in muscle mass.

    “The effects of HMB supplementation in trained athletes are less clear with selected studies reporting non-significant gains in muscle mass [175–177].”
  • Most available research fails to show an ergogenic value for ribose supplementation on exercise capacity in healthy untrained or trained populations.

    “Of the available research, most fail to show an ergogenic value for ribose supplementation on exercise capacity in healthy untrained or trained populations [682–684].”
  • Concurrent training increases maximal aerobic capacity as well as strength and hypertrophy.

    “Furthermore, studies show that concurrent training increases maximal aerobic capacity as well as strength and hypertrophy (Mccarthy et al., 1995; Balabinis et al., 2003; Sillanpaa et al., 2008; Lundberg et al., 2014).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
