Number of repetitions in different percentage of maximum load of neuromuscular exercises

Abstract

Introduction: Neuromuscular exercises are essential components of physical rehabilitation and sports training programs, however, there are still important gaps on your prescription. Objective: To verify if there is difference in the number of maximum repetitions (MR) resistance training with different maximum load intensities (MI). Methods: To assess 26 young, healthy, sedentary, underwent a test to determine the MI and then performed MR tests with 50%, 70% and 90% of MI. Analyzed moves: elbow flexion (EF), elbow extension (EE) and shoulder abduction (SA). Results: There was a significant difference in the comparison of MR in the movements of EF vs. EE and EF vs. SA. Comparing the MR each year, there was significant difference between the loads of 50% and 70% and between 50% and 90%. Conclusion: There is a difference in the MR number of resistance movements with free weights from different intensities of the maximum load.
