| Description | The purpose of this article was to determinate the ralationship of the acute effect of the application of maximum-strength stimulus (method od repetition maximum) id distance runners on changes in indicator of running economy. Eight recreation runners (with VO2max 55,18+-4,8 ml/min/kg, age 25,4+-1,4, MB 78,0+-7,8 kg) completed 4RM training od lower limbs (leg press, leg flexion, leg extension, calf raise on multipres and dumbbell lunge). The test of RE was performed on a treadmill (1% inclination) at velecities 8, 10, 12 km/h (interval 5 min, last 2 min was collected of each stage) on three separate occasions (0, 24, 48 h after 4RM). Before intervation testing subjects executed RE test (determination of initial level, VO2max test and 1RM (or rather 4RM) diagnostics. We have found that the average VO2/BM/min and deltaVO2/BM/min at given speeds increased from 2,5 to 5,6 %, although no significant differences were observed |
