About this study
Official title: Comparative Effects of Integrated and Isolated Resisted Exercise on Strength, Power and Endurance in Gym Beginners
Resistance training and strength training are synonymous terms used to denote a component of sport and exercise training that is designed to enhance muscular strength, muscular power, and local muscular endurance for general exercise or competitive sports. Resistance training is a specialized method of conditioning that involves the use of different modes of training with a wide range of resistive loads, from body weight to barbells. Resistance-training programs may include the use of free weights (barbells and dumbbells), weight machines, medicine balls, kettlebells, elastic tubing, or a person's own body weight to provide the resistance needed to increase strength.
Objective of study is to compare the effects of integrated and isolated resisted exercise on strength, power and endurance in gym beginners. Design of the study is randomized clinical trial. Data will be collected from body choice gym township, Lahore. Performance, strength, power and endurance will be measured by using Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale, 1RM maximum, Anthropometry. One Group participants will received integrated resisted training session and other group will train with isolated resisted training.
Read the detailed description
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of integrated and isolated resisted exercise on strength, power and endurance in gym beginners.Resistance training is one of the most popular training approaches adopted by coaches professionals. Due to the limited number of literature on athletes, it's forever a challenge for physiotherapists in to enhance functional performance in players by implementing these techniques.
The basic purpose of this research is to find and compare the effects of integrated and isolated training on strength, power and endurance in gym beginner. The study can help coaches and trainers to identify the most effective training methods for improving strength, power and endurance.Previous literature show that resisted exercises play effective role in gym trainer for strengthening, power and endurance. But there is a limited literature on comparing the effects of integrated and isolated resisted exercise so our focus is to measure the role of these techniques for strength, power and endurance in gym beginners.

2 groupsOther
Also called integrated Resised Training, Isolated resisted training
up 5 times repetition twice a week in first 4 week and then progress to 10 times repetition twice a week from 5-8th week of session
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Experimental | :- The INT program will involve a standard warm-up and cool down. The INT program involve exercises aimed at improving core stability, power, and strength. These exercises will progressed to more demanding exercises over the 8-week training program. The intensity increased by adding more repetitions, resistance, and through exercise modifications. Integrated resisted exercises include opposite arm and leg lift, bridging, side lying lift, ball back extension, push up 5 times repetition twice a week in first 4 week and then progress to 10 times repetition twice a week from 5-8th week of session Receives: Other: 2 groups |
| Group 2 | Experimental | The ISO program involved participants first performing a series of standardized warm up and cool down exercises before and after the training program, respectively. Specifically, the participants rode a stationary bike for 10 minutes followed by static stretching of the calves, hip flexor, and low back. The ISO program began with 5 time repetition and lower body resistance exercises for the first 4 weeks and progressed to 10 exercises for the last 4 weeks. The exercise resistance used in the ISO program also progressed over the 8 weeks. The static stretches were repeated as part of the cool down after completing the ISO program. Isolated exercises include leg press, bench press, Ab crunch, barbell curl and back squat Receives: Other: 2 groups |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Endurance: sit up test
The sit-up test is a measure the endurance of the abdominal and hip-flexor muscles. The aim of this test is to perform as many sit-ups as you can in two minutes
Measured: 1-8 weeks
Power: - vertical Jump Test
The person puts chalk on their finger tips to mark the wall at the height of their jump. The person then stands away from the wall, and jumps vertically as high as possible using both arms and legs to assist in projecting the body upwards. Attempt to touch the wall at the highest point of the jump
Measured: 1-8 weeks
Strength: 1RM maximum
The 1RM test is often considered the 'gold standard' for assessing the strength capacity of individuals. It is simply defined as the maximal weight an individual can lift for only one repetition with correct technique
Measured: 1-8 weeks
