Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different intensities of antagonist exercise on performance of agonist muscles. Subjects were 11 healthy males (18-22 years, 70.50 ± 3.7 kg., 176.33 ± 3.03 cm., BMI were 22.68 ± 1.20 kg./m., and relative strength were 1.01 ± 0.04.) Subjects were selected by random sampling. Subjects came to the laboratory on 5 different occasions, with a minimum rest interval of 5 days. On the first visit, Subjects were familiarized with 1 RM. Testing of bench press and bench pull. On the second, third, fourth and fifth visits, subjects performed pre-test by bench press throw 30% 1RM. of bench press 5 times and then subjects performed bench pull exercise with random counter balancing in 4 intensities such as 20% 1 RM., 40% 1 RM., 60% 1 RM. and 80% 1 RM. of bench pull 8 times and followed immediately post-test by 5 times of bench press throw. Data analysis was performed by using One-way Analysis of Variance with Repeated Measures with multiple comparisons by Bonferroni method. The results of this study indicated that once subjects had carried out bench pull exercises with 80% 1 RM, their levels of force and power were noticeably high immediately post bench press throw test. Velocity of immediately bench press throw test after bench pull exercise at 80% 1 RM. was greater than at 20% 1RM.
