Abstract

The objective of this study was to verify the increase of muscular strength in the muscle chest in adult individuals of the masculine gender, with intermediate level of muscular activity practice. They were chosen 15 individuals, with medium age 23.73 ± 3.75 years old, without taking in consideration socioeconomic level, students of an academy, residents in Joinville/SC. They used the consent inform, after that they used the tests of 1 RM for the chest (Chest Press) and Resistance of Superior Members (superior portion of the body). After that measured the percentile of fat and the percentile of muscular mass. The applied planning elapsed initially with a base work, with duration of one week and intensity around 50 to 60% of the maximum load. In the second phase, the participants accomplished a training seeking, only, the increase of pure force. With duration of five weeks and intensity among 60 to 90% of the maximum load. According to the average of the results between pré and powder-test, the Test was used t to discover the statistical significância. The results obtained for %G 0.2115; %MM 0.878; 1RM 0.0139 and RMSS 0.0001. In summary, this training model was efficient in improving the muscular force (p <0.05), as well as it improved the level of the muscular resistance in the superior members in relation to the initial levels. Therefore, the systematic and specific practice of exercises also caused improvement in this aspect.
