Power-Load Relationship of Bench Press, Ballistic Bench Press, and Prone Bench Pull in International Medal-Winning Canoeists and Kayakers. [PDF]
Paddler athletes use resistance training (RT) to optimize power output (PO) during competitions. Understanding the power–load relationship (P–Lr) is essential for effective RT prescription. Moreover, the push-to-pull ratio (PU/PR)—the one-repetition maximum (1RM) of a pulling exercise divided by the one of a pushing exercise—has been suggested as a ...

Remote‐Based Brain Endurance Training Enhances Bench Press, Preacher Curl, and Jump Squat Performance in Recreational Athletes [PDF]
Supervised laboratory‐based brain endurance training (BET), a form of combined cognitive and exercise training, benefits exercise performance. Given that athletes often train unsupervised, we compared effects of unsupervised remote‐based BET and standard

Differences in unilateral chest press muscle activation and kinematics on a stable versus unstable surface while holding one versus two dumbbells [PDF]
Training the bench press exercise on a traditional flat bench does not induce a level of instability as seen in sport movements and activities of daily living. Twenty participants were recruited to test two forms of instability: using one dumbbell rather
