Physiological and Biochemical Studies on Exercise Prescription for a Weight Training Program

该项目的主要目的是评估改善身体、生理和生化变量的最佳方案。测试包括：肌肉力量和耐力(缆索张力计)、运动能力(Margaria-Kalaman)、身体成分(静水称重)、腰围测量、心血管功能(Balke跑步机)和血脂。53名男性(年龄18-26岁)每周训练三次，为期八周。从本研究的结果来看，EN(耐力；2组16次)、EES(2组15次每周两次)和CWT(环路重量训练)计划对改善身体和生理指标最有效，EES计划由于其对运动能力和肌肉力量的影响可能最适合运动队。这项研究还表明，举重训练可以提高高密度脂蛋白-胆固醇。然而，总胆固醇、甘油三酯和最大摄氧量呈负相关，提示有氧调节在血脂代谢中的重要性。由于高辍学率和与伤病相关的问题，不建议参加EX(1组16名代表尽快参加)计划。

The primary aim of this project was to evaluate an optimal regimen for improving physical, physiological, and biochemical variables.Testing included : muscular strength and endurance(Cable tension meter), performance power(Margaria-Kalaman), body composition (hydrostatic weighing), girth measurements, cardiovascular functioning(Balke treadmill), and plasma lipids. Fifty-three men(aged 18-26 yrs)trained three times a week for eight weeks. The six weight training programs were utilized in this study.From the results of this study, EN(Endurance ; 2 sets of 16 reps), EES(2 sets of 15 reps twice a week and 2 sets of 6 reps once a week), and CWT(Circuitweight training)programs appear to be the most effective for improving physical and physiological measures and EES program may be the most suitable for athletic teams due to its effect on performance power and muscular strength. This study also indicates that weight training can increase HDL-Cholesterol. However, the negative realationship between Total cholesterol and Triglycerides and VO_2 max suggests the importance of aerobic conditioning in plasma lipid metabolism. EX(1 set of 16 reps as rapidly as possible)program is not recommended due to a high drop out and injury related problems.
