Desempenho de repetições máximas adotando diferentes ordens de exercÃcios em uma sessão de treinamento de força para o membro superior
Introduction: The exerciser order directly affects the strength performance. Objective: To investigate the influence of different variations of exercise order on repetition performance during resistance training sessions. Methods: Eighteen trained men performed two randomized experimental protocols: SEQA – bench press (BP), incline bench press (IBP), machine shoulder press (MSP), shoulders abduction (SA), triceps extension on pulley (TEP) and French triceps extension (FTE); SEQB – reverse order. Three repetitions to failure sets were performed with ten repetition maximum loads for all exercises. Results: Significant differ - ences were observed in total work (repetitions x sets) for BP, IBP, MSP, SA, and FTE between SEQA and SEQB, except TEP exercise. There were no significant differences between the sequences (p = 0.07), considering the sum of repetitions for all exercises under SEQA (2225 ± 2.44) and SEQB (2337 ± 2.3). Conclusion: We suggest that priority exercise should be performed in the beginning of the training session, regardless the muscle group size
