Influence of Fixed High-Intensity and Conventional Pyramid Training on Upper and Lower Limb Strength of Fencers
Objective:Fixed high-intensity training and conventional pyramid training are two commonly used training modes to develop strength quality,this study intends to compare the effects of these two intervention methods on the strength quality of fencers. Methods:In this study,19 fencers were paired and grouped twice. In the general preparation period of the season,they were trained in bench press and half squat with fixed high intensity and regular forward pyramid respectively during 6 weeks. Except for bench press and half squat respectively according to the group assignment,the rest of the resistance training adopted the same training mode. After 6 weeks of training,the effects of the two training modes on the development of upper and lower limb strength of fencers were tested and compared. Results:The results of bench press training (Group A) and half squat training (group C) with fixed high-intensity training mode,and bench press training (group B) and half squat training (group D) with conventional normal pyramid training mode were improved compared with those before the experiment. Comparing the growth rate of bench press performance of group A and group B,it is found that the growth rate of bench press performance of group B after the experiment is more obvious than that of group A after the experiment;Comparing the growth rate of half squat performance of group C and group D,it is found that the growth rate of half squat performance of group D after the experiment is more obvious than that of group C after the experiment. Conclusion:The strength of the four groups is improved after the intervention,and the conventional normal pyramid training mode is more effective than the fixed high-intensity training for the bench press and half squat strength of the fencers.
