Movement Velocity as A Measure of Exercise Intensity in Persons with Multiple Sclerosis : A Validity Study

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to analyse the validity (agreement between two methods) of the movement propulsive velocity (MPV) as an indicator of relative load in leg press (LP) and bench press (BP) exercises in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS).

METHODS: 18 persons with MS (sex = 55% male; age (mean SD) = 44.88 10.62 years; body mass = 67.19 10.63 kg; height = 1.66 0.07 m; Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) = 3.12 1.73) performed an incremental loading test in BP and LP exercises in two separate sessions. Individual determination of the one-repetition maximum (1RM) and full load-velocity profile were obtained for each participant.

RESULTS: a significant linear relationship was observed between the %1RM load and the MPV in LP (%1RM = -133.58 × MPV + 117.44; r2 = 0.84; standard error of the estimate (SEE) = 9.38%1RM) and BP (%1RM = -95.66 × MPV + 115.26; r2 = 0.86; SEE = 9.82%1RM). In addition, no significant differences were found between the %1RM achieved directly and the %1RM obtained by the equation calculated from the linear regression (LP, p = 0,996; BP, p = 0,749).

CONCLUSIONS: these results indicate that movement velocity can estimate the relative load in bench press and leg press exercises in persons MS.
