Methods:ik vraag me af hoe deze test zijn gedaan.
We recruited four healthy volunteer athletes, two men and two woman. Al the subjects had at least four years experience in strength training and had not used performance-enhancing substances for at least one year.
We tested them on two separate days.
On the first day we determined their one-rep maxes for the exercises
Each athlete performed a warmup of four reps at 50 percent of one rep max, three reps at 80 percent and two reps at 90 percent, with a five-minute rest after each set. The atletes then performed three one-rep maxes for the exercise taking a five minute rest after each trial
On the second day the subjects dis 80% of one-rep maxes five times, interspersed with three minute rest intervals.
We measured electrmyographic activity during all exercises. All EMG data was rectifeid and integrated for one second, wich is referred to as IEMG.
We designated the exercise that yielded the highest IEMG determined at one-rep maximum as IEMG max for the .......(edit:vul hier de betreffende spier in) and we determined IEMG max bij taking the average of the three rep maxes for each exercise.
We expressed IEMG values obtained during 80 percent of one-rep max sets as a percentage of one-rep IEMG max and we determined IEMG at 80 percent of one-rep maxes the average of the five 80 percent trials.
