Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hey guys....someone please pull Gerry out from under all those studies.Rest assured, for the next few weeks at least, he'll not ask "Where IsThe Study?" Quoting rrbelloff@...: > Implications This is an excellent review of the research. It tangentially pointsout that there is not much hard evidence supporting strength trainingas a viable means for improving athletic (functional) performance.When most studies test on the activities which are trained, andimprovements are shown, that may simply be an artifact of a trainingeffect rather than a strength effect. Because arm-curl strength isimproved through training does not mean that activities involving thearm will be improved in trained athletes although there may be someimprovements in sedentary individuals. The article was limited tothe assessment of research on strength training parameters. It did notassess the value of strength training for effecting performancechanges in highly-trained athletes in activities such as rowingergometer performance, speed skating times, and throwing velocity.Published work in those domains has shown no training benefit fromresistance training.
