Background

High volume power training (HVPT) involves high volumes of high-velocity resistance training, with the aim to improve repeated high-intensity efforts (RHIEs). Repeat power ability (RPA) is the ability to repeatedly produce maximal or near maximal efforts. Assessments of RPA using external loading may determine the ability to perform repeat RHIEs typical of many sports and, therefore, provide useful information on the effectiveness of training.

Objectives

(1) Identify the different HVPT protocols; (2) examine the acute responses and chronic adaptations to different HVPT protocols; (3) identify different lower body RPA assessment protocols and highlight similarities, differences and potential limitations between each protocol, and; (4) describe the reliability and validity of RPA assessments.

Methods

An electronic search was performed using SPORTDiscus, PubMed, CINAHL and Embase for studies utilising HVPT protocols and assessments of RPA. Eligible studies included peer-reviewed journal articles published in English.

Results

Twenty studies met the inclusion criteria of the final review. Of the eight longitudinal studies, three were rated as fair and five were rated as poor methodological quality, respectively. In contrast, all 12 cross-sectional studies were considered to have a low risk of bias. Preliminary evidence suggests that HVPT can enhance RHIE, RPA, anaerobic capacity, anaerobic power and aerobic performance. HVPT generally consists of 2–3 sessions per week, utilising loads of 30–40% 1 repetition maximum (RM), for 3–5 sets of 10–20 repetitions, with inter-set rest periods of 2–3 min. RPA assessments can be valid and reliable and may provide useful information on an athlete’s ability to perform RHIE and the success of HVPT programmes.

Conclusions

HVPT can be used to improve a number of physical qualities including RPA and RHIE; while a variety of RPA assessments provide valid and reliable information regarding the athlete’s ability to perform RHIEs. Considering the heterogeneity in the HVPT protocols currently used and the relatively low volume and quality of longitudinal publications in this area, further studies are needed to identify the effects of a variety of HVPT methods on RPA, RHIE and other performance outcomes and to identify the most valid and reliable RPA outcomes to use in such studies.

高强度力量训练对重复性高强度运动的影响以及对重复性力量能力的评估：系统评价。

背景

高强度力量训练（HVPT）涉及大量高速度阻力训练，目的是提高重复的高强度努力（RHIE）。重复力量（RPA）是重复产生最大或接近最大努力的能力。使用外部负荷进行的RPA评估可以确定执行许多运动中常见的重复RHIE的能力，因此，可以提供有关训练效果的有用信息。

目标

（1）识别不同的HVPT协议；（2）检查对不同HVPT方案的急性反应和慢性适应；（3）确定不同的下半身RPA评估方案，并强调每种方案之间的相似性，差异和潜在的局限性；以及 （4）描述RPA评估的可靠性和有效性。

方法

使用SPORTDiscus，PubMed，CINAHL和Embase进行了电子搜索，以利用HVPT方案和RPA评估进行研究。符合条件的研究包括以英语发表的同行评审期刊文章。

结果

二十项研究符合最终评估的纳入标准。在八项纵向研究中，分别将三项评为公平，而五项评为方法学质量较差。相反，所有12项横断面研究均被认为具有较低的偏倚风险。初步证据表明，HVPT可以增强RHIE，RPA，厌氧能力，厌氧能力和有氧性能。HVPT通常每周进行2-3次训练，使用30–40％1次最大重复（RM）负荷，进行3–5组10–20次重复，组间休息时间为2-3分钟。RPA评估可以是有效和可靠的，并且可以提供有关运动员执行RHIE的能力以及HVPT计划成功与否的有用信息。

结论

HVPT可用于改善许多物理质量，包括RPA和RHIE；而各种RPA评估可提供有关运动员进行RHIE的能力的有效和可靠的信息。考虑到当前使用的HVPT协议的异质性以及该领域纵向出版物的数量和质量相对较低，需要进一步的研究来确定各种HVPT方法对RPA，RHIE和其他性能结果的影响，并找出最多的方法。有效且可靠的RPA结果可用于此类研究。
