Abstract

Background : The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) on resistance training volume during the bench press exercise (BP). The study included 12 healthy strength-trained males (age 25.2 ± 2.1 years, body mass 92.1 ± 8.7 kg, BP one-repetition maximum (1RM) 28.8 ± 10.5 kg, training experience 6.3 ± 2.1 years). Methods : The experiment was performed following a randomized crossover design, where each participant performed two different exercise protocols with a conditioning activity (CA) consisting of the BP with three sets of three repetitions at 85% 1RM (PAPE), and a control without the CA (CONT). To assess the differences between PAPE and CONT, the participants performed three sets of the BP to volitional failure at 60% 1RM. The differences in the number of performed repetitions (REP), time under tension (TUT), peak power output (PP), mean of peak power output (PP MEAN ), mean power output (MP), peak bar velocity (PV), mean of peak bar velocity (PV MEAN ), and mean bar velocity (MV) between the CONT and PAPE conditions were examined using repeated measures ANOVA. Results : The post-hoc analysis for the main condition effect indicated significant increases in TUT ( p < 0.01) for the BP following PAPE, compared to the CONT condition. Furthermore, there was a significant increase in TUT ( p < 0.01) in the third set for PAPE compared to the CONT condition. No statistically significant main effect was revealed for REP, PP, PV, PP MEAN , PV MEAN , MP, and MV. Conclusion : The main finding of the study was that the PAPE protocol increased training volume based on TUT, without changes in the number of preformed REP.
