Sentences with phrase «power of the weightlifters»

Not exact matches

Dr. John Garhammer — brilliant mind, with a terrific understanding of Newtonian mechanics, physics and mathematics and a great deal of experience in training athletes, from Olympic weightlifters to throwers — addressed the important similarities in terms of peak power output (a derivative of absolute strength) and rate of force development between Olympic weightlifters, high jumpers, and throwers.

«Effort» is how much of our maximum muscle power we're using: a weekend warrior and an olympic weightlifter are feeling the same «effort» when they do their 1RM (1 repetition maximum), but of course, the olympic weightlifter can produce lots more power at that same effort.

Exploring the ground reaction force (GRF), Souza & Shimada (2002a) investigated a power clean performed with 60 — 70 % of 1RM in young, male weightlifters.

Investigating the horizontal displacement of the bar during the hang power snatch, Christ et al. (1996) compared an elite weightlifter and a resistance - trained individual.

Souza & Shimada (2002a) explored the forces acting on the knee joint during a power clean performed with 60 — 70 % of 1RM in young, male weightlifters.

This lack of a strong relationship differs from observations made in resistance - trained individuals who are not Olympic weightlifters relationships, where a moderate - to - strong association between 1RM power clean and vastus lateralis muscle cross-sectional area has been observed (McMahon et al. 2015).

Probably in consequence of the high proportion of fat in the diet of Olympic weightlifters, carbohydrate intake is generally much lower than standard recommendations for strength and power athletes (Slater & Phillips, 2011), where 55 — 60 % of caloric intake is generally proposed (Rogozkin, 2000).

While an element of the unexplained variability will likely have arisen though measurement error, it is more likely that the variation occurred primarily through variation between performances within individuals, as snatch, clean and jerk, and total 1RM varies by around 2.3 — 2.7 % in elite Olympic weightlifters (McGuigan & Kane, 2004), although test - re-test reliability of the 1RM power clean is nearly perfect in adolescent male athletes, with ICC = 0.98, a standard error of measurement (SEM) of 2.9 kg and a smallest worthwhile change (SWC) of 8.0 kg (Faigenbaum et al. 2012).

The Power Clean is one of those training exercises and a so - called derivative of the competition lift the Clean and is used by Olympic Weightlifters as a training exercise to improve the Clean.
