Comparison in muscle activity between the back squat, Romanian deadlift and barbell hip thrust during hip extension
Common resistance-training exercises such as back squat, Romanian deadlift (RDL), and hip thrust have been used by strength and conditioning specialists to target the musculature used during hip extension. Little is known about the differences in muscular activity of the hip extensors between these …

The Relationship Between Relative Strength Levels to Sprinting Performance in Collegiate 100-400M Sprinters
… between relative maximal (1RM) strength (i.e. back squat and power clean) to sprinting performance in 60-400m collegiate sprinters. A secondary purpose was to determine the distribution of athletes within the theoretical relationship between relative squat strength and performance capabilities. …

The effect of variable resistance training for the post activation performance enhancement of the countermovement jump
… investigated the effects of a heavy load barbell back squat with traditional resistance and VRT by steel chains on counter movement jump (CMJ) performance, specifically for jump height and positive net impulse. Twelve resistance-trained individuals volunteered to participate in three experimental …

Which resistance training method best improves running economy in elite marathon runners: a 16-week randomised controlled study
Background: Concurrent training combines resistance and endurance exercises in a single program and has been linked to improvements in running economy (RE), running muscle power factors, and time trial performance. However, the mechanisms underpinning these improvements remain unclear. This study …

The potentiating effects of different warm-up protocols on sprint cycling performance
… whether a modified band resistance (MBR) back squat, offered advantages over a standard resistance (SR) back squat or a standard warm-up to potentiate sprint cycling performance for athletes. The study used an experimental crossover design to examine the effects of different warm up …

A Comparison of Linear and Daily Undulating Periodizied Strength Training Programs.
… gains in 1 Repetitions maximums (1RM) for back squat (BS) and bench press (BP) (core exercises). Nineteen subjects (n=19) underwent a 6-week resistance-training (RT) program. Participants performed both BS and BP two day a week. The LP group linearly increased intensity while decreasing …

Assessing the effect of psychological priming techniques on salivary hormones and physical performance markers
… rugby performance, a three-repetition maximum back squat (3RM), and bench press. On the contrary, aggressive video clips gave mixed results: testosterone rose by 10% (g = 0.67, 95% CI 0.43, 0.90) prior to performing a 3RM squat, with only a trivial finding of 1% (g = 0.03, 95% CI -0.20, 0.26) …

Towards an Automated Weight Lifting Coach: Introducing LIFT
… may not be optimal for barbell exercises such as back squat, bench press, and overhead press where a sensor on one arm may not provide the most relevant data about a lift. Barbell path analysis is a well-known visual tool to help diagnose weightlifting technique deficiencies, but requires a camera …

Deception of Resistance and the Effects on Muscular Fitness and Perceived Exertion
… at 60% one-repetition max, protocols of barbell back squat. The remaining three trials consisted of similar protocols but the resistance was masked. These three trials included: a five percent increase in resistance, a five percent decrease in resistance, and the same resistance lifted at …
