Changes of EEG power spectra in bench press weight training exercise

摘要

Weight training is a one type of exercises which some people interest. When the body has a physical exercise which enough intensity, it can produce a positive effect on brain function by changing amplitude of EEG activity. This study examined the effect of an acute physical exercise by using bench press weight training on EEG activity in nine healthy young adults. The resent study demonstrated that EEG activity could be recorded during bench press weight training. The amplitude of EEG activity included beta and gamma frequency bands increased with statistically significant at the 0.05 level. The findings of this study documented increases in beta and gamma frequency bands during bench press weight training. Therefore, this bench press weight training might significantly altered the intense exercise. Future studies may want to examine how these changes in EEG influence or are associated with changes in cognition, affect and/or perception during bench press weight training.
