Effect of Unstable Loads on Stabilizing Muscles and Bar Motion During the Bench Press.

Abstract:

:Lawrence, MA, Ostrowski, SJ, Leib, DJ, and Carlson, LA. Effect of unstable loads on stabilizing muscles and bar motion during the bench press. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000-000, 2018-Unstable loads are anecdotally used to increase muscle stabilizer strength and utilization; however, there is little evidence to support these claims. Twelve male powerlifters (age 28.6 ± 5.2 years, body mass 105.6 ± 14.5 kg, lifting experience 9.8 ± 6.0 years, and bench press 5 repetition maximum [5RM] 133.6 ± 30.9 kg) pressed their 5RM in one stable condition with a standard barbell, and 3 unstable conditions using a flexible barbell with weights suspended from elastic bands. Mean integrated muscle activity for each repetition of the stabilizers and prime movers were measured. A Lyapunov exponent and sample entropy indicated unstable loads were less predictable and more variable in the superior/inferior direction, thus more challenging to control, despite decreased loads. The main finding was increased bicep activity in all unstable conditions (light bands and plates, +57%; mini bands and plates, +67%; and mini bands and kettlebells, +88%). Although less weight was used in the unstable 5RMs, most stabilizer muscle activity was not different between conditions, suggesting that the amount of weight used during unstable load training (up to 32.3% less load) may be limited by the ability of stabilizer muscles to control the load.
