  1. EXERCISE TRAINING TO IMPROVE MUSCLE STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE

  2. What is the command chain of voluntary muscle contraction? • Classification of muscle fibres • How is the force regulated during voluntary contraction? • What is muscle fatigue?

  3. CORTICAL CONTROL  AHC IN SPINAL CORD  MOTONEURON  AXON  GROUPS OF MUSCLE FIBRE  NMJ  MUAP MUAP  E-C COUPLING  MUSCLE CONTRACTION  FORCE GENERATION Initiation of voluntary movement

  4. MUSCLE FATIGUE • Various definition • “Any reduction in the force-generating capacity of total neuro-muscular system, regardless of the force required in any given situation” Bigland-Ritchie (1984) • Site: Central and Peripheral

  5. CORTICAL CONTROL  AHC IN SPINAL CORD  MOTONEURON  AXON  GROUPS OF MUSCLE FIBRE  NMJ  MUAP MUAP  E-C COUPLING  MUSCLE CONTRACTION  FORCE GENERATION Initiation of voluntary movement

  6. STRENGTH TRAINING • GENERATION OF MUSCLE FORCE • Recruitment order • Firing Frequency

  7. MUSCLE MECHANICS • Muscle length • Force-length relationship • Rate of change in muscle length • Force-velocity relationship Therefore, muscle tension depends on muscle length and velocity

  8. PRINCIPLES OF EXERCISE TRAINING • Overload • Progression • Specificity • Adaptation • Reversibility • Individualisation

  9. OVERLOAD PRINCIPLE • To increase the size or functional ability, muscle fibres must be taxed toward their present capacity to respond • it is not the absolute force that determines the quantity of the stimulus but rather the size of force relative to the maximum

  10. SPECIFICITY PRINCIPLE • Training adaptations are specific to the cells and their structural and functional elements that are overloaded. • Strength vs Endurance

  11. STRENGTH TRAINING • ISOMETRIC • ISOTONIC • ISOKINETIC • ES

  12. ISOMETRIC TRAINING • Consider threshold point, intensity levels and systematisation of the program • 40-50% of IMVC, 5-8 rep. 4-6 s. (untrained individuals) • 80-100%, 5-10s and 2-5 rep. (elite athlete)

  13. DISADVANTAGES • angle specific (10 degree) •  heart rate and BP

  14. DYNAMIC • Concentric Vs Eccentric • Eccentric - more force generation Colliander & Tesch (1990) • Knee ext. training programme • mode 3/7 x 12/52 • Concentric =18% improvement • Concentric + eccentric = 36% improvement

  15. Training mode • Isokinetic • Accommodating resistance • Speed specific • Open chain

  16. NMES • Rationale • Neural insufficiency - the force exerted during a MVC can be increased with single electric shocks

  17. Kots protocol (Russian technique) • Freq: 50Hz • Repetition: 10 • on / off cycle: 10s: 50s • improvement 1.6% per session

  18. Lower force requirement • Laughman et al (1983) • isometric vs NMES • similar improvement (18 vs 22%) • training intensities: 78 vs 33%

  19. LOADING PRINCIPLE • PRE • DeLorme (DeLorme 1945) • 50% 10RM, 75% 10RM, 100% 10RM • Oxford Technique (Zinovieff 1951) • Reverse of Delorme • Light to heavy system • 10 RM x1, 8 RM x1, 6 RM x1 • Circuit training

  20. EVALUATION OF TRAINING

  21. ADAPTATION TO EXERCISE • Plasticity of muscle • Neuromuscular Adaptation • Remember: Torque is the interaction of the neural (motor unit recruitment and discharge rate, mechanical (moment arm) and Muscular (length and cross-sectional area)

  22. NEURAL ADAPTATIONS • Precedes muscular adaptations • reflects from changes in EMG

  23. MUSCULAR ADAPTATION
