Abstract

Objective: The objective of this article was to verify the effects of resistance training with shock on the diameter, strength, and muscle weight of C57BL/6 mice.  Materials and Methods: An experimental study was carried out, where the animals were divided into a control group (n=5) and an experimental group (n = 5). The experimental group performed 21 resistance exercise sessions. Six sets of eight repetitions were performed with a 90-second interval between sets. The measurement of the relative and absolute muscular strength (FM) of the four limbs was performed using a muscle traction force meter (Bonther®). The Mann-Whitney test was performed to compare the post-pre (delta) difference of the dependent variable and the level of significance was set at p ≤ 0.05. Results: The results found showed that the difference in the mean absolute FM was significant (p=0.016), but in the absolute FM (p=0.076), in the average relative FM (p=0.175) and in the maximum relative FM (p=0.076), there was no difference. there was a significant difference. Regarding the effect size, the average absolute FM was classified as large (1.13), the maximum absolute FM was classified as large (1.40), the average relative FM was classified as moderate (0.92) and the Maximum relative FM was classified as large (1.46). Conclusion: Resistance training with shock stimulation promoted an increase in muscle strength in the members of the animals in the experimental group, showing a perspective for the continuity of research in order to investigate the effect of this training in various situations related to health and / or performance.
