A Modified YMCA Bench Press Test as a Predictor of 1 Repetition Maximum Bench Press Strength

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2002
This study evaluated the influence of cadence on the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) bench press test for predicting 1 repetition maximum (1RM) bench press test performance. Fifty-eight medical students (37 men, 21 women) were evaluated for anthropometric variables (age, height, weight, fat-free mass, and percent fat), 1RM bench press, and 2 ...

Effect of Different Pushing Speeds on Bench Press

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2012
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect on muscular strength after a 3-week training with the bench-press at a fixed pushing of 80-100% maximal speed (FPS) and self-selected pushing speed (SPS). 20 resistance-trained subjects were divided at random in 2 groups differing only regarding the pushing speed: in the FPS group (n=10) it was ...

Velocity- and Power-Load Relationships of the Bench Pull vs. Bench Press Exercises

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2013
This study compared the velocity- and power-load relationships of the antagonistic upper-body exercises of prone bench pull (PBP) and bench press (BP). 75 resistance-trained athletes performed a progressive loading test in each exercise up to the one-repetition maximum (1RM) in random order.

Bench press exercise: the key points.

The Journal of sports medicine and physical fitness, 2015
The bench press exercise (BPE) is receiving increasing interest as a field testing, training/therapeutic modality to improve neuromuscular performance or to increase bone mass density. Several studies have been performed using BPE as a standard for increasing upper-limb strength.
