LOAD TO THE APPLICATION OF 1-RM TESTS IN UPPER LIMBS OF YOUNG WOMEN TRAINED AND UNTRAINED
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to propose reference values to application of the 1-Rm tests in young women trained and untrained. 90 women, 18-31 years, grouped into: 43 Trained (GT) and 47 Untrained (GNT) were submitted to 1-Rm tests in the following exercises: bench press, shoulder press, biceps curl and lying triceps ex- tension. GT showed higher values than GNT in absolute and relative terms: bench press (GT = 36.44 kg/0.63 and GNT = 27.34 kg/0.46), shoulder press (GT = 27.93 kg/0.49 and GNT = 22.70 kg/0.38), biceps curl (GT = 21.63 kg/0.37 and GNT = 15.57 kg/0.26) and lying triceps extension (GT = 18.09 kg/0.31 and GNT = 12.55 kg/0.21). The values found in this study can be used as references of load to application of 1-Rm tests.
