Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess and compare the muscular strength with bench press test and dominant hand-grip test between pre-intervention and post-intervention. Methods: Two male para powerlifting athletes from Vietnam National Team were recruited and volunteered to participate in this study. The intervention scheme of this study consisted of resistance training program specially designed for the para powerlifting athletes were carried out for a duration of 8 weeks, three times a week, training load was set from 65% to 85% of the 1 Repetation Maximum of the participants, repetition and set of training was from 8 reps/3 sets to 10 reps/6 sets. The embedded post-training recovery services consisted of sport massage sessions, sauna bathing, High Intensity Laser Therapy and Kinesio taping. Results of current study revealed that significant improvement of Bench Press and Hand-Grip strength tests between pre-intervention and post-intervention (p<0.05). Conclusions: The para elite athletes from Vietnam, in the case of the elite sporting environment where small changes in their performance often represent a meaningful difference for performance outcomes, informed decisions surrounding the context of post-training recovery services is of utmost importance.
