Effect of Strength Training Program with Elastic Band on Strength Parameters
Journal Title: Biology of Exercise - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 2
Abstract
the effects of 8-weeks elastic band strength training program on strength parameters were examined in 24 male subjects. subjects were divided two equal groups as the elastic band (eBG) and the control (CG). elastic band training program was administered on the eBG during 8 weeks. explosive strength training program was applied on the CG at the same period. Maximal strength parameters in back muscle, leg muscle, right- and lefthand grip; and squad, calf press, butterfly, bench press, biceps dumbbell curl, shoulder press strength parameters were measured with one repetition maximum (1rM) method as the strength parameters. significant increments were found between preand post-test of all strength parameters of the eBG (p < 0.05). significant increases were found in back strength, leg strength, squad, calf press, butterfly, bench press, biceps dumbbell curl, and shoulder press strength of the CG (p < 0.05). there were significantly higher changes in squad, calf press, butterfly, bench press, biceps dumbbell curl, and shoulder press moves in the eBG than the CG (p < 0.05). In summary, it can be said that there are positive effects of elastic band strength training program on strength parameters in male athletes.
