ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Estimating muscle strength in upper limbs with different tests is paramount for quantifying training loads, however, there are few scientific studies that correlate the push-ups of the arms with the maximum repetition in flat bench press, a free weight exercise commonly used to activate the upper train musculature.
Objective:
To determine the association between muscle resistance in arm flexions and maximum repetition in flat bench press in physically active subjects.
Methods:
Descriptive study of correlational type with a sample of 15 men and 7 women students of physical education, recreation and sports of the University of Pamplona. The National Strength and Conditioning Association protocol was applied for the evaluation of muscle endurance in arm push-ups and for the flat bench press the maximum repetition test was applied which consists of executing a repetition with as much weight as possible. In addition, the statistical package PSPP (p-value of 0,05) was used to apply the normality tests (Shapiro-Wilk) and the Spearman correlation coefficient.
Results:
The main finding was the positive and non-significant association (p>0,05) of muscle endurance in push-ups with maximum repetition in bench press in men (r = 0,26) and women (r = 0,49).
Conclusion:
In physically active subjects there is no significant association between muscle resistance in arm push-ups and maximum repetition in flat bench press.
