Abstract in brief

  • The study compared the effects of single-joint (SJ) and multijoint (MJ) resistance training on body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, and muscle strength in active males, finding that both types of exercises reduced body fat and increased muscle mass equally.
  • Both training methods improved VOmax (a measure of fitness) and muscle strength, but improvements were generally greater in the MJ group, especially for VOmax and strength tests like bench press, knee extension, and squat.
  • Since total exercise volume was the same, multijoint exercises proved to be more efficient for building strength and improving cardiovascular fitness, while neither method significantly affected body composition differently.]

Las mejoras de la fuerza parecen ser mayores y mas rapidas con ejercicios multiarticulares que con ejercicios que involucran una sola articulación https://t.co/8qURho0Nt1

Already well-trained young men (soccer players) increased their cardiorespiratory fitness by 12.5% with a program of compound resistance training. Effective resistance training is your best bet for great cardiorespiratory fitness. https://t.co/EvHfuucDJ6

ไม่ว่าจะเป็นท่า Multi-joint หรือ Single-joint ก็พัฒนา Body composition , VO2Max และ Strength ได้ แต่ Multi-joint ดูจะพัฒนาได้ดีกว่า โดยเฉพาะในแง่ของ VO2Max และ Strength ส่วน Body composition ไม่ได้แตกต่างกันมาก ก็ลองนำไปปรับใช้ดูตามเป้าหมายของเรานะครับ https://t.co/jhGmp3xSyQ

ベンチプレスみたいな多関節種目だけのグループ vs レッグエクステンションみたいな単関節種目だけのグループ →どちらも同じだけ脂肪が減って筋肉が増えた →筋力は軒並み多関節種目グループの勝ち ボリュームも揃えたのでとりあえず多関節の勝ち #筋トレ #ダイエット https://t.co/DJRAKvSsmz
