Abstract

Objective: To investigate the ability of the OMNI-RES (0-10) scale to estimate velocity and loading changes during sets to failure in the hang power clean (HPC) exercise.

Material and Methods: Eleven recreationally resistance-trained males (28.5±3.5 years) with an average onerepetition maximum (1RM) value of 1.1±0.07 kg body mass-1 in HPC, were assessed on five separate days with 48 hours of rest between sessions. After determining the 1RM value, participants performed four sets to self-determined failure with the following relative load ranges: 60%<70%, 70<80%, 80<90% and >90%. The peak vertical velocity (PVV), and Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) were measured for every repetition of each set.

Results: The RPE expressed after the first repetition (RPE-1) and when the highest value of PVV was achieved during the set (RPE-max) were similar and significantly lower than the RPE associated with a 5% (RPE-5%) and 10% (RPE-10%) drop in PVV. In addition, the RPE produced at failure was similar to RPE-5% only for the heaviest range (≥90%). Furthermore, RPE-1 was useful to distinguish loading zones between the four assessed ranges (60<70, vs. 70<80%, vs. 80<90%, vs. ≥90%).

Conclusions: The RPE seems to be useful to identify PVV changes (maximal, 5% and 10% drop) during continuous sets to self-determined failure and to distinguish 10% loading zone increments, from 60 to 100% of 1RM in the HPC.
