The maximal number of repetitions that can be completed at various percentages of the one
repetition maximum (1RM)[REPS~% 1RM relationship] is foundational knowledge in …

Background Research on post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) is dominated
by lower-body conditioning activities/performance test complexes. Despite the contribution …

Background: Mechanical power output is recognized as a critical characteristic of an athlete
with regard to superior performance during a competition. It seems fully justified that ballistic …

Background Various studies have used different exercise protocols as post-activation
performance enhancement (PAPE) stimulus; however, little attention has been given to the …

This study compared the effects of short-duration ischemic preconditioning, a single-set high-
resistance exercise and their combination on subsequent bench press performance. Twelve …

This review aimed to determine the ideal combination of post activation potentiation (PAP)
strategies for an improved strength performance. After analysing 202 articles, 15 studies met …

Although velocity control in resistance training is widely studied, its utilization in eliciting post-
activation performance enhancement (PAPE) responses receives little attention. Therefore …

This study aimed to determine whether the intra-complex active recovery within the strength-
power potentiating complex will impact the upper-body post-activation performance …

The purpose of the present study was to examine the acute effects of the bench press
exercise with predetermined velocity loss percentage on subsequent bench press throw …

(1) Background: post-activation potentiation (PAP) plays an essential role in enhancing
athletic performance. Various conditioning activities (CAs) have been developed to generate …
