Abstract

The aim of this study is to research Creatine kinase, Creatine kinase myocardial band and Lactate dehydrogenase activity of the traditional and drop-set resistance exercise program at young men. Ten male participants with a mean age of 20.10±0.74 years, height 176.10±4.72 cm, body weight 67.41±3.09 kg, body fat % 6.81±4.69 and body mass index 21.79±1.5 kg/m2 were included in the study. who did recreational resistance training, were included in the study. 1 Repeated Maximum test was used to decide the intensity of bench-press, shoulder press, leg press and hack squat used in the exercise. Participants applied traditional training (80% of 1 TM and 3 sets of 8 repetitions) with an interval of one week. Participants applied traditional (80% of 1 TM to 8 repetitions 3 sets) and Drop-set (4 repetitions 90% of 1TM, 80% 4 repetitions, and 70% 4 repetitions, 2 sets) trainings with a one-week interval. Creatine kinase, Creatine kinase myocardial band and lactate values were determined by taking the blood of the participants before (pre-test) and after (post-test) training. The Borg Scale was applied to the subjects to determine the difficulty level of the resistance exercises. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used for normality. Wilcoxon test was used for pre- and post-test variables, and Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of traditional set and drop-set training. Significant (𝑝>0.05) increases were detected between pre- and post-test in Creatine kinase, Creatine kinase myocardial band and lactate values of traditional set and drop-set training. Comparison of Creatine kinase (z=-0.76, 𝑝>0.05), Creatine kinase myocardial band (z=-0.79, 𝑝>0.05) and lactate (z=-0.27, 𝑝>0.05) parameters between traditional and drop-set resistance training no statistically significant difference was detected. It has been determined that drop-set and traditional set resistance training models give equal damage on the muscle when applied with equal training volume and average equal intensity.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, genç erkeklerde Geleneksel ve Drop-set ve direnç antrenman programlarının Kreatin kinaz, Kreatin kinaz miyokard bandı ve Laktat dehidrogenaz aktivitesini araştırmaktır. Araştırmaya yaş ortalaması 20.10±0.74 yıl, boy uzunluğu 176.10±4.72cm, vücut ağırlığı 67.41±3.09 kg, vücut yağ %6.81±4.69 ve vücut kütle indeksi 21.79±1.5kg/m2 olan 10 erkek katılımcı çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. 1 Tekrar Maksimum testi uygulanarak belirlenen egzersizlerin yükleri belirlendi. Katılımcılar birer hafta ara ile geleneksel (1 TM’nin %80 ile 8 tekrar 3 set) ve Drop-set (1TM’nin 4 tekrar %90, 4 tekrar %80, ve 4 tekrar %70, 2 set) antrenmanı uyguladı. Katılımcıların antrenmanlar öncesinde (ön-test) ve sonrasında (son-test) kan alınarak Kreatin Kinaz, Kreatin kinaz miyokard bandı ve laktat değerleri tespit edildi. Antrenmanların zorluk derecesini belirlemek için deneklere, Borg Skalası uygulandı. Elde edilen verilerin Normallik için Kolmogorov-Smirnov testi kullanıldı. Ön- ve son-test değişkenleri için Wilcoxon testi, geleneksel set ve drop-set antrenmanı karşılaştırılmasında ise Mann-Whitney U testi kullanıldı. Geleneksel set ve drop-set antrenmanların Kreatin kinaz, Kreatin kinaz miyokard bandı ve laktat değerlerinde ön- ve son-test arasında anlamlı (p<0.05) artışlar tespit edildi. Geleneksel ve Drop-set direnç antrenmanları arasında Kreatin kinaz (z=-0.76, 𝑝>0.05), Kreatin kinaz miyokard bandı (z=-0.79, 𝑝>0.05) ve laktat (z=-0.27, 𝑝>0.05) parametreleri karşılaştırılmasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark tespit edilmedi. Sonuç olarak drop-set ve geleneksel set direnç antrenman modellerinin eşit antrenman volümü ve ortalama eşit şiddet ile uygulandığında kas üzerinde eşit hasarı verdiği belirlenmiştir.
