法式對比訓練是結合複合式訓練法 (complex training) 及增強式訓練法 (plyometric training),過去法式對比訓練法用於下半身訓練較多,因此本研究將探討法式對比訓練對於橄欖球運動員上肢爆發之立即效益。目的:本研究目的旨在探討法式對比訓練對橄欖球運動員上肢爆發力之立即效益。方法:招募12名橄欖球選手為研究對象。實驗介入採仰臥推舉動作,執行85% 1RM 1下搭配3次彈震式伏地挺身 (ballistic push up, BPU),接續3-5次泡綿式臥推 (體重50%) 搭配爆發伏地挺身 (彈力繩) 3-5次。統計方式利用單因子相依樣本變異數分析考驗前後測上肢爆發力之影響。顯著差異水準設定為α = .05。結果:伏地挺身上推高度在介入後3、7、12分鐘皆顯著優於1分鐘 (p < .05)。結論:法式對比訓練介入熱身確實能有效立即改善上半身爆發力表現。
French contrast training (FCT) combines complex training and plyometric training. In years past, FCT was mainly used for the lower body. Purpose: This study aims to investigate the immediate effects of FCT on the explosive power of the upper body in rugby players. Methods: Twelve rugby players were recruited to participate in this research. The experiment involves bench press, performing 1 reception at 85% of 1RM with 3 ballistic push-ups (BPU), followed by 3-5 foam bench presses (about 50% of body weight) with 3-5 explosive push-ups (using elastic rope). The repeated measure ANOVA was adopted to analyze the phenomenon of power of the upper body. The significant difference level was set at α = .05. Results: The height of the push-up showed significantly higher at post-3, 7, and 12 minutes than a post-1 minute (p < .05). Conclusion: The intervention of FCT in warm-up may effectively improve the power performance of the upper body.
