| description | The purpose of this study was to compare
the effects of different load intensities with rest intervals between sets on
heart rate, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), power output, and blood lactate
concentration during a squat strength endurance training protocol. A total of 4
sets of strength endurance tests were performed on 15 national Level 2 or above
athletes with different load intensities (30% of 1 repetition maximum (1RM),
50% 1RM) and different rest intervals between sets (1 min, 2 min), 20 reps per
set. Mean power (P-mean), mean heart-rate (HRmean) and RPE variations during the
exercise were collected by using a linear position transducer, heart rate
monitor, and Borg 6–20 scale. Besides, finger blood was collected before and
after the exercise, and analyzed by using a blood lactate
analyzer. HRmean, P-mean and RPE values were significantly
higher at 50% 1RM load intensity than at 30% 1RM (p < 0.01), HRmean
was significantly higher at 1 min rest interval than at 2 min between sets, while
P-mean was significantly higher at 2 min rest interval than at 1 min between sets
(p < 0.05); at 30% 1RM loading intensity, blood lactate
concentrations were significantly higher at the completion of exercise for the 1
min rest interval between sets than for the 2 min (p < 0.01). However,
at 50% 1RM loading intensity, blood lactate increased similarly at the
completion of training in multiple sets, independent of the rest interval between
sets. From a practical point of view, the results suggest that a 1 min
rest interval between sets may be sufficient in a strength endurance training
protocol when the load intensity is 30% 1RM. However, when the load intensity is
50% 1RM, we suggest that a 2 min rest interval between sets is required for
optimal recovery and maintenance of power output. |
