Sentences with phrase «weight bench press compared»

In contrast, McCaw et al. (1994) found greater middle deltoid muscle activity during the free weight bench press compared with the machine bench press at 60 % 1 RM but not at 80 %, although in both cases the middle deltoid muscle activity was approximately half that of the anterior deltoid.

McCaw & Friday (1994) also found that the middle deltoid muscle activity was significantly greater during the free - weight bench press compared with the Smith machine version.

Exploring the effect of implement, Schick et al. (2010) found that middle deltoid muscle activity was significantly greater when performing the free - weight bench press compared with the Smith machine variation.

They reported that the biceps brachii displayed significantly greater muscle activity when performing the free - weight bench press compared to the smith machine at 60 % but not 80 % of 1RM.

For example, middle (but not anterior) deltoid activation tends to be greater during free weight bench presses compared to Smith machine bench presses (Schick et al. 2010).

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).

In studies of weight loss rates, weekly losses of 1 kg compared to 0.5 kg over 4 weeks resulted in a 5 % decrease in bench press strength and a 30 % greater reduction in testosterone levels in strength training women [16].

McCaw & Friday (1994) compared isoinertial loads at 60 and 80 % of 1RM and reported a main difference in both anterior and middle deltoid muscle activity at 60 % of 1RM (the free - weight bench press was superior) but found no difference at 80 % of 1RM.
