Background and Purpose
Bodyweight strength training is commonly performed in physical therapy settings; however, its effectiveness in promoting muscle strengthening and hypertrophy, as well as its potential benefits as aerobic exercise, remains unclear. Similarly, weight training using external loads or machines has been increasingly incorporated into cardiopulmonary and preventive physical therapy. Despite its growing prevalence, the aerobic benefits of weight training are not well understood, nor is the extent to which it fulfills the goal of muscle strengthening compared to bodyweight training.
This study aims to clarify the characteristics of both bodyweight and weight training by measuring joint angles, muscle activity, oxygen consumption, and lactate production during exercise. These findings will contribute to a better understanding of the specific physiological demands and benefits of each training modality in physical therapy interventions.
Efficacy
During each strength training session, the following measurements will be conducted:
(1) Joint angle assessment,
(2) Electromyographic (EMG) signal analysis,
(3) Expired gas analysis, and
(4) Blood lactate measurement.

Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups [Group 1 to Group], with each group consisting of 10 participants. The allocation will be conducted by gathering four participants at a time and assigning them to the four groups by lottery. Each exercise session will last approximately 30 minutes, with one exercise performed per day. Within each group, different exercises will be conducted on separate days. Blood lactate levels will be measured before and after each session. If no specific issues arise, consecutive-day measurements may be conducted. The total duration of participation will vary depending on the group but is expected to range from approximately 3 to 5 days.
