Abstract

This study aimed to examine low-frequency personal training effects on the elevation weight of chest and leg presses in a fitness club. The participants included 20 females who exercised thrice a week in the fitness club. Furthermore, they were randomly separated into two groups, i.e., personal training (PT) group: 11 females (mean age, 54.9 ± 10.9 years; mean height, 158.7 ± 5.0 cm; mean body weight, 53.6 ± 8.5 kg) and control (C) group: 9 females (mean age, 57.8 ± 10.6 years; mean height, 156.5 ± 5.2 cm; mean body weight, 55.8 ± 9.5 kg). They were also instructed to perform training to increase the elevation weight of chest and leg presses. Training was performed thrice a week for 12 weeks. The PT group performed personal training with a personal trainer once a week, and they followed the training menu that the personal trainer made twice a week. The C group performed training thrice a week without the trainer. The elevation weights of chest and leg presses were measured by 6 RM test. The elevation weights of chest and leg presses in the PT and C groups after training was significantly large than that before training. In addition, the elevation weights in the PT group after training was significantly large than in the C group. Although the elevation weight of chest and leg presses in both the groups were increased by the training, the amount of increase in the PT group was large compared to the C group. Low-frequency personal training increased the elevation weight than the training without a trainer.
