Muscle strength training experiment, with the method of weekly muscle strength training in PE class, was arranged for university students for 10 weeks so as to observe the effects of muscle strength training. The results of barbell bench press and standing barbell curl (IRM) were tested before and after the training, and the thigh circumference and upper arm circumference were also measured. After the training period, IRM increased more than 10%. Significant improvement was observed both in barbell bench press and standing barbell curl. The result shows that weekly muscle strength training can improve the muscle strength of university students. But this kind of exercise cannot bring distinct changes to body shape. |
