Sentences with phrase «pneumatic resistance»

External load types include pneumatic resistance, elastic resistance, weights (including free weights, chains, and machines), and dynamometers (which use magnets).

The only truly constant externally - applied force is provided by pneumatic resistance, because it has so little inertia.

Using pneumatic resistance or accommodating resistance training has 3 key characteristics in comparison with other external load types:

The applied pneumatic resistance is the only external force acting, and since it is always constant, the total externally - applied force is also very constant across the whole exercise range of motion.

For example, a constant pneumatic resistance machine displays a constant externally - applied force over the whole exercise range of motion.

When working against pneumatic resistance, the barbell accelerates faster, because the loading at the start of the concentric phase is low.

Pneumatic resistance consistently allows faster bar speeds for the same percentage of 1RM, while free weights tend to involve greater force production.

This may imply that pneumatic resistance is better for producing velocity - specific adaptations, while free weights are better for producing force - specific adaptations, although there are of course many other factors involved.

Pneumatic resistance machines can be set to use air pressure to exert a constant force against the lifter.

Finally, constant resistance uses a very light mass in combination with a fixed pneumatic resistance so that inertia is minimal, and the force is constant throughout the whole repetition.

There are 2 key differences between free weight and pneumatic resistances: 1️⃣ compared with pneumatic resistance, free weights involve a greater load at the start of the exercise ROM, which places more load on the muscle in a stretched position.

Not exact matches

He loves jump training because it forces you to keep accelerating throughout the whole movement, just like lifts which incorporate accommodating resistance like bands, chains and pneumatic equipment Keiser pulleys.

For example, when comparing constant load (free weight) and constant resistance (pneumatic machine) bench presses, the constant resistance bench presses involve higher peak velocities, because they allow greater acceleration at the start of the movement (Frost et al. 2008).

Other training and testing equipment can include variable resistance (like machines using cams) or constant resistance, pneumatic machines (including Keiser machines).

Pneumatic (constant resistance) produces comparatively greater gains in pneumatic bench press 1RM, while free weight (constant load) strength training leads to comparatively greater gains in free weight bench press 1RM (Frost et aPneumatic (constant resistance) produces comparatively greater gains in pneumatic bench press 1RM, while free weight (constant load) strength training leads to comparatively greater gains in free weight bench press 1RM (Frost et apneumatic bench press 1RM, while free weight (constant load) strength training leads to comparatively greater gains in free weight bench press 1RM (Frost et al. 2016).

If you have the right set - up, you can even use specially - designed pneumatic machines to provide resistance to the barbell, using cables.

Currently, there is very little research available exploring the differences in strength gains between pneumatic (constant resistance) and free weight (constant load) strength training.

In terms of ergonomics you can't adjust the armrests, but there is pneumatic height adjustment and you can also adjust the amount of resistance needed to tilt the backrest a bit with the knob underneath the seat.
