Clinical Trial Summary

A complex training on a dynamic leg-press with visual feed-back will improve coordinative capacity, power, sensorimotor and cognitive aspects more than a classic training on the same leg-press but without visual feed-back.

Description:

The project evaluates two different resistance training programs on a leg press. One group will perform a standard resistance training with the aim of muscle hypertrophia, the other group will perform a complex resistance training combining rate of force development training, power training, speed endurance as well as sensorimotor aspects (i.e. following visual feedback to reproduce given forces or joint angles).

Hypotheses: Participants in the complex training group will change the relation between counter movement jump and squat jump, i.e. they will more improve in the counter movement jump because of improved sensorimotor capacity.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	coordination	coordination, i.e. sensorimotor capacity measured with (a) the difference between counter-movement jump and squat jump and (b) with a test for dynamic joint-position sense on the dynamic leg press	5 weeks	No
Secondary	Power	power measured on the dynamic leg press and with the squat jumps	5 weeks	No
Secondary	Balance	Balance measured with the Star Excursion Balance Test	5 weeks	No
Secondary	Power - Endurance	Repeated power production during a repeated chair rise test where participants rise from a chair during one minute with two second rest between rises.	5 weeks	No
