Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine muscular strength responses to five different weight training frequencies per week. Seventy-five male volunteer high school subjects were randomly assigned to train either 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, or 5 days per week. All groups trained on an identical program of 18 sets of 1 maximum repetition in the bench press lift for 9 weeks. Significantly greater muscular strength improvement was observed in the group that trained 5 days per week than groups training fewer frequencies per week. Sequential strength improvements resulted from increased frequency of training. It was concluded that the more frequent the stress the greater the adaptation. Verf.-Referat
