Journal ArticleDOI
Post-COVID-19 Syndrome and the Potential Benefits of Exercise
Amaya Jimeno-Almazán,Jesús G. Pallarés,Ángel Buendía-Romero,Alejandro Martínez-Cava,Francisco Franco-López,Bernardino Javier Sánchez Alcaraz Martínez,Enrique Bernal-Morel,Javier Courel-Ibáñez +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a narrative review summarizes the up-to-date evidence on post-COVID-19 syndrome to contribute to a better knowledge of the disease and explains how regular exercise may improve many of these symptoms and could reduce the long-term effects of COVID19.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproducibility and Repeatability of Five Different Technologies for Bar Velocity Measurement in Resistance Training.
Javier Courel-Ibáñez,Alejandro Martínez-Cava,Ricardo Morán-Navarro,Pablo Escribano-Peñas,Javier Chavarren-Cabrero,Juan José González-Badillo,Jesús G. Pallarés +6 more
TL;DR: This study aimed to analyze the agreement between five bar velocity monitoring devices, currently used in resistance training, to determine the most reliable device based on reproducibility (between-device agreement for a given trial) and repeatability ( between-trial variation for each device)
Journal ArticleDOI
Velocity- and power-load relationships in the half, parallel and full back squat
Alejandro Martínez-Cava,Ricardo Morán-Navarro,Luis Sánchez-Medina,Juan José González-Badillo,Jesús G. Pallarés +4 more
TL;DR: The Pmax corresponded to a broad load range and was greatly influenced by how force output is calculated (including or excluding body mass) as well as the exact outcome variable used (MP, MPP, PP).
Journal ArticleDOI
Movement Velocity as a Measure of Level of Effort During Resistance Exercise.
Ricardo Morán-Navarro,Alejandro Martínez-Cava,Luis Sánchez-Medina,Ricardo Mora-Rodriguez,Juan José González-Badillo,Jesús G. Pallarés,Jesús G. Pallarés +6 more
TL;DR: By monitoring repetition velocity one can estimate with high accuracy the proximity of muscle failure and, therefore, to more objectively quantify the level of effort and fatigue being incurred during resistance training.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability of technologies to measure the barbell velocity: Implications for monitoring resistance training
Alejandro Martínez-Cava,Alejandro Hernández-Belmonte,Javier Courel-Ibáñez,Ricardo Morán-Navarro,Juan José González-Badillo,Jesús G. Pallarés +5 more
TL;DR: T-Force stands as the preferable option to assess barbell velocity and to identify technical errors of measurement for emerging monitoring technologies, while the Speed4Lifts and STT are fine alternatives to T-Force for measuring velocity against high-medium loads.
