Justification of Training Conditions Aimed at the Development of Muscle Hypertrophy During the Fitness Training
Keywords:
muscle hypertrophy, physical activity, power fitness, intensity, training frequencyAbstract
The article deals with the formation of muscle hypertrophy problem during physical activity with weight (power fitness). Based on materials of special methodological literature and content-analysis of scientific supplies in the MEDLINE and Google Scholar databases it is shown that training for muscle development and achievement of the desired shape muscles (hypertrophy) have almost no methodological or any other differences. Also it is found out that the programs that lead to the increasing of the strength also cause a certain increase in a muscle mass but the extent of such increments can vary significantly depending on the characteristics of physical activity – training frequency, the value of weight and the volume of the work force. The presented results allowed to differentiate the power loads in fitness with mentioned characteristics. It is rationally to appropriate three force training conditions in fitness, the combination of which in the development of strength and hypertrophy makes the process the most effective.
