Question

• Is resistance training beneficial for endurance athletes?

Page 4: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Before 12 weeks of resistance training

Page 5: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

After 12 weeks of resistance training

Page 6: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Yes!

• Resistance training in the off‐season will lead to increased performance

• Of the 19 studies reviewed, 16 support increased performance

• The other three show no significant differences

Page 7: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Off‐Season

• There is no “off” in off‐season– Last about 3‐5 months– Decrease volume and intensity– Recover physically and mentally– Work on power for next season– Maintain necessary endurance base

Page 8: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Resistance training for endurance athletes is not a “strength” training program

• You can not adapt a body building or strength program

• Too high volume• Common mistake made by lay population

Page 9: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Effects of Resistance Training on Endurance Performance

• Concurrent training interferes with optimal strength gains (Hickson 1980)

• Not a concern for endurance athletes• Research has demonstrated that concurrent training does not negatively impact endurance performance

Page 10: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• No alteration in VO2max • No decrease in endurance performance measures

• Resistance training does not increase aerobic capacity– VO2max Measures remain unaltered due to resistance training

• Even when increases in performance are evident

Page 11: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Improved Performance

• Increase in Time to exhaustion– Hickson et al. (1988)

• Short‐term endurance (5‐8 min) increased by 11% (cycling) and 13% (Running)

• Long‐term (69‐85 min) increased by 20% (cycling)– Running not measured in long‐term (injury)

– Storen et al. (2008)• Increased time to exhaustion by 20.3%,  while running at maximal aerobic speed

Page 12: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

– Marcinik et al. (1991)• Cycling time at 75% of VO2max increased by 33%

Page 13: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Increases in performance over a fixed distance or time– Aagaard et al. (2007)

• Short‐term endurance (distance traveled in 5 min) increased by 3‐4%

• Long‐term endurance (distance traveled in 45 min) increased by 8%

– Paavolainen et al. (1999)• 5 km running time improved by 3.1%

Page 14: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Spurrs, Murphy, & Watsford (2003)– 3 km run time improved by 2.7%

Page 15: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Improvement in economy– Johnsten et al. (1997)

• Improvement in economy running at 214 and 230 m∙min‐1  (8 & 8.5 mph)

– Millet et al. (2002)• Improvement in economy (3km run at a fixed resistance) 

– Spurrs, Murphy, & Watsford (2003)• Improved running economy (VO2 measures at 12, 14, & 16 km h‐1)

Page 16: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

– Storen et al. (2008)• 5% improvement in running economy at 70% of VO2max

– Turner, Owings, & Schwane (2003)• Running economy improved at three different submaximal intensities by 6‐10%

Page 17: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Improvements in time to exhaustion and increases in performance can be attributed  to improvement in economy– Due to no increase in VO2max

– However, some studies did report an increase in lactate threshold

Page 18: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

– Increased performance due to neuromuscular adaptations

• Increased type I muscle fiber recruitment, which delays type II muscle fiber recruitment

– Reducing peak tension at submaximal levels

• Improved motor unit recruitment patterns and synchronization

• Improved stretch‐shortening cycle during running– Increased elastic energy from eccentric contraction– Reduce contact with ground

Page 19: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Increased lactate threshold– Current research has produced mixed results– Increased LT would lead to increased performance

Page 20: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Body composition– Most research does not support significant changes in body composition in endurance athletes

– Hickson et al. (1988)• Muscle biopsy‐ fiber diameter unchanged after training

Page 21: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Increased power production– Noakes (1988), Nummela et al. (2006), and Paavolainen et al. (1999) suggest that muscle power affects economy.

– For sprints and climbing

Page 22: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Decrease the risk of overuse injuries – Decrease muscle imbalance– Increased joint stability– Improved biomechanics

Page 23: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Increased bone density– Important for cyclists and swimmers– Site specific

Page 24: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Most swimming studies concentrate on 50‐200 meters– Trappe and Pearson (1994)

• Compared pull‐ups and dips with traditional weight training

• 365.8 meter time trial increased in both groups

Page 25: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

– Sprint swimming research has demonstrated that resistance training improves:

• Stroke rate• Distance traveled per stroke• Both would lead to increased performance in distance swimming as well.

Page 26: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Practical Application

• The average off season is about 12 weeks long.– When examining the training length of 13 studies:

• Mean of 9.31 ± 3.28 weeks• Range = 5‐16 weeks• Improvement was evident even in 5 and 6 week programs

Page 27: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Specificity 

• Exercises should be sport specific– Look at angle and speed of action– Cycling:

• Soleus

– Swimming:• Rotator cuff muscles

– Working core important for all

Page 28: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Types of Resistance Training

• Weight Training• Plyometrics• Body management

Page 29: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

– Sport specific resistance• Cycling: 

– Tension intervals– Hill repeats

• Running: – Hill repeats– Stadium workouts

• Swimming: – Tethered swimming– Paddles– Dry‐land

Page 30: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Sudden increases in sport specific resistance training can lead to injury

Page 31: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...
Page 32: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Research shows improvement with all types of resistance training– Plyometrics– Weight Training

• High reps/low weight• High reps high speed• Low reps/high weight

• To date, one has not been shown to be more effective than another

Page 33: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Sedano et al. 

• differences between strength training (3 sets, 7 reps) and plyometrics, muscular endurance (3 sets, 20 reps), and a control group (band).

• Both resistance groups improved significantly in strength, running economy, and peak velocity.

• Only the strength and plyo group increased 3km run time.

Page 34: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Repetition and Sets

• There is not a consensus on the correct amount of reps– Low reps (4‐6), mid reps (8‐12), and high reps (up to 30) appear to work.

• Sets 1‐3

Page 35: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Number of exercises– Keep program low volume– One large movement/muscle group– One small movement/muscle

Page 36: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

Developing a program

• Start slowly– DOMS

• Cycling: no eccentric motion

– Injury

• Technique– Endurance athletes may not be familiar with proper technique 

Page 37: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Days per week– One to three– Start with two days in the weight room and one sport specific resistance

– When you move from off‐season to preparation phase drop to one day/week.

– Stop resistance training during competition phase• Can keep one day/week sport specific resistance

Page 38: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Volume– Do not add weight training on top of normal off‐season volume

– Jackson, Hickey, & Reiser (2007)• Three groups:

– Cycling only– High resistance (4 reps)– High repetition (20 reps)

• No differences in performance between any group

Page 39: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Both resistance protocols were added on top of cycling• Subjects were also conducting hill repeats and intervals• Too high volume• Subjects stated that they would not be able to keep up the volume of training

Page 40: Resistance - NSCA · Assisted and Resisted Sprint ... G. Effects of Dry‐Land vs. Resisted‐and Assisted‐Sprint Exercises on Swimming ... of Resistance training on ...

• Must keep an aerobic base
