The Effect of Supplemental Isolated Weight-Training Exercises on Upper-Arm Size and Upper-Body Strength
Human Performance Laboratory, Ball State University, Muncie, IN.
NSCA Conference Abstract (2000)
The researchers compared the effects of a weight training program on 5RM strength and arm circumference and divided the subjects into two groups. Group 1 performed four compound upper body exercises, while Group 2 used the same program but included biceps curls and triceps extensions.
The results showed that both groups significantly increased strength and arm size
However, the addition of direct arm training to group two produced no additional effect on strength or arm circumference after 10 weeks of training.
The additional localized training did not result in anything that the bigger compound exercises didn't provide.

Jeg smider lige en "debatåbner" måske omkring iso øvelser vs. compound øvelser, hvor der jo har været diskussioner frem og tilbage om hvorvidt der bør føjes curls til et program, der allerede indeholder fx CG chin-ups. For nogen er det måske gammel viden, men jeg blev ihvertfald (positivt) overrasket.
Så hvad siger I? Er det den endelige slut på "iso som supplement til compound"-debatten?
