<p>This chapter deals with historical aspects of strength training, contextualizing the relevance of strength training for combat sports to maximize the performance of grapplers, strikers, and mixed martial artists. Scientific articles were listed that presented data related to maximum strength in the leading research databases. Scientific evidence presented in official and simulated matches, and official competitions are presented. Likewise, longitudinal studies on the development of maximal strength in combat sports athletes, maximal strength tests for combat sports athletes (dynamic, isometric, and isokinetic tests), and reference for maximal strength (dynamic and isometric exercises) values in several exercises, as well as normative tables are presented. Another point approached was training prescription for muscle hypertrophy and maximal strength development (dynamic and isometric) for combat sports athletes.</p>

Purpose: To compare resistance training using a velocity loss threshold with training to repetition failure on upper-body strength parameters in professional Australian footballers. Methods: A total of 26 professional Australian footballers (23.9 [4.2] y, 189.9 [7.8] cm, 88.2 [8.8] kg) tested 1-repetition-maximum strength (FPmax) and mean barbell velocity at 85% of 1-repetition maximum on floor press (FPvel). They were then assigned to 2 training groups: 20% velocity loss threshold training (VL; n = 12, maximum-effort lift velocity) or training to repetition failure (TF; n = 14, self-selected lift velocity). Subjects trained twice per week for 3 weeks before being reassessed on FPmax and FPvel. Training volume (total repetitions) was recorded for all training sessions. No differences were present between groups on any pretraining measure. Results: The TF group significantly improved FPmax (105.2–110.9 kg, +5.4%), while the VL group did not (107.5–109.2 kg, +1.6%) (P > .05). Both groups significantly increased FPvel (0.38–0.46 m·s−1, +19.1% and 0.37–0.42 m·s−1, +16.7%, respectively) with no between-groups differences evident (P > .05). The TF group performed significantly more training volume (12.2 vs 6.8 repetitions per session, P > .05). Conclusions: Training to repetition failure improved FPmax, while training using a velocity loss threshold of 20% did not. Both groups demonstrated similar improvements in FPvel despite the VL group completing 45% less total training volume than the TF group. The reduction in training volume associated with implementing a 20% velocity loss threshold may negatively impact the development of upper-body maximum strength while still enhancing submaximal movement velocity.

This paper examines and present the findings of the physical and mechanical properties of concrete containing rice husk ash (RHA), and the blend of rice husk ash with calcium carbide waste (RHA-CCW). Concrete cubes, cylindrical and beam specimens containing different percentages of RHA and RHA-CCW by weight of cement (5, 10, 15 and 20 %) were cast. Compressive strength test was carried out after the specimens were cured in water for 7, 14, 28 and 56 days. Test for tensile and flexural strength was carried out after 28 days curing. Initial and final setting time test was carried out on mortar specimens with the same percentage of RHA and RHA-CCW. Bogues model was used to determine the elemental and compound composition of cement when blended with the RHA and RHA-CCW. From the results obtained, the compressive strength of RHA-CCW concrete increases as cement is partially replaced with RHA-CCW content, with the maximum strength attained at 5 % replacement. RHA concrete attains it maximum strength at 10 % replacement. The maximum compressive strength results obtained for both RHA and RHA-CCW concrete were higher than the strength of plain concrete (0 % replacement) by 1.1 % and 14.7 % respectively. Interestingly, results obtained for the tensile strength also shows a similar pattern of strength development with that of compressive strength. The flexural strength properties of concrete was improved upon when RHA-CCW was used in concrete compared to RHA. The results of setting time test for RHA mortar showed a decrease in setting time, while the reverse was the case for RHA-CCW mortar. In conclusion, provided adequate curing is maintained, the used of RHA-CCW gives a better performance in concrete than RHA. However, they both perform better in concrete than the plain, and can be used as additives in concrete production.

Long-term experience of application of a method of electric heating by heating wires of the monolithic concrete and reinforced concrete structures erected in winter conditions is analyzed. This method, developed by the author of the article, took a dominant position on the construction sites due to the simplicity and efficiency in comparison with the mass applied in those years, the method of electric heating of concrete with steel round and strip electrodes. The data on labor intensity, material and energy costs in comparison with the method of rod electric heating are presented. Step-by-step technological operations on preparatory works and electric heating of monolithic structures with the use of extensive hands-on material, which formed the basis for the development of technological regulations, supplemented by a number of new proposals to improve the technology of works, are concretized. In order to work out the optimal mode of heat treatment, the studies of the concrete thermal conductivity factor in the process of its heating and strength development were carried out. The method for calculation of the basic parameters of concrete electric heating is presented. For simplification of calculations, for a wide contingent of masters, superintendents and technical personnel, the nomogram , making it possible with sufficient accuracy under the construction conditions to calculate the necessary heating parameters, was developed. The necessity of grounding the heating wire remaining in the concrete to reduce the harmful effect of magnetic radiation from various appliances and household appliances on the human body is noted.

High-strength 7020 alloy is widely used in aerospace structures and is approved by the world’s leading airframe builders. For engineering applications this alloy is generally used in the T651 temper in order to provide maximum strength. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: AL-400. Producer or source: Alcoa Mill Products Inc.

Weight Loading

Testing of 25 cosmonauts showed that the amount of resistance training weight loading in long-term space mission influences dynamics of the leg-muscle strength and velocity recovery. On Earth, the loads equal from 70 to 130 % of the body mass is sufficient for keeping up endurance and maximum strength moments of shin and thigh muscles. In the group of cosmonauts who had not used the strength training device or chosen loads less than 30 % of the body mass the leg-muscle maximum strength and thigh endurance were decreased substantially on day 4 of return and all the more by day 15 back on Earth.
