Abstract

Individuals with significant resistance training experience are purported to exhibit greater efficiency at maximal and near maximal intensities during weight training than novice lifters. One of the primary exercises, which has been examined for biomechanical and technique efficiency is the squat. However, the comparison of lifting velocities between experienced and novice squatters as a marker of neuromuscular efficiency, has yet to be investigated.
