Analysis of the relationship of weight 1RM with body weight in elderly women sedentary: determination of maximum relative strength index in weight training exercises
Abstract
One of the usual methods to indirectly measure the maximum force of individuals trained or sedentary is the 1RM test. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the weight lifted in the 1RM test and body weight of sedentary elderly subjects in various training exercises. Study participants were 19 healthy elderly sedentary females, mean age 63.2 ± 2.4 years. After the test, the weight of 1RM was divided by body weight to determine the Maximum Relative Strength Index (IFMR). Linked to the Incline, the mean values and standard deviation of the IFMR were 0.18 ± 0.05, for the Pec Deck, the values were 0.29 ± 0.06, for the Handle Closed 0.43 ± 0.12, for Paddling Neutral, 0.21 ±0.05, for Shoulder Abduction, 0.1 ± 0.02, for the Triceps Pulley, 0.33 ± 0.09, for Pulley Biceps, 0 , 3 ± 0.06, for the Leg-Press, 45 1.01 ± 0.2, for the Chair Extender, 0.33 ± 0.08, for the seated Calf Raise, 0.47 ± 0.14, for chair Aqueduct, 0.97 ± 0.26and for the chair abductor, 1.04 ± 0.2. Thus, it is possible to establish a relationship between body weight and the weight of 1RM in several training exercises in older women, thus contributing to a diagnosis and development of the training program more accurate and insightful for this population.
