The secret of the passing number of parallel bar arm flexion and extension for the military

　　Parallel bar arm flexion and extension is an important item in the military's physical fitness assessment, and the number of passes has always been the focus of the majority of military personnel. It not only tests upper body strength, but is also related to core stability and other abilities. Let’s learn more about it below.

The Importance of Qualified Numbers of Parallel Bar Arm Flexion and Extension

　　Show upper body strength: Parallel bar arm flexion and extension main exercise Chest and triceps muscles of the upper body. The number of qualified times is a quantitative reflection of the strength of a soldier's upper body. The stronger the strength, the more times he or she can complete.

　　Military training requirements: In military operations, many tasks require the support of upper limb strength, such as climbing, carrying weapons and equipment, etc. It is a basic requirement for military training to reach the qualified number of parallel bar arm flexion and extension.

Factors affecting the number of passes

　　age factor: Generally speaking, young soldiers have better physical fitness, stronger muscle strength and endurance, and may have a relatively higher number of passes.； As for older soldiers, their physical functions have declined and the number of passes may be reduced.

　　training level: Soldiers who regularly conduct targeted training have mastered the correct training methods and techniques, their upper limb strength and endurance will continue to improve, and the number of times they have passed will also increase accordingly.

How to increase the number of passes

　　Action breakdown training: Breaking down the parallel bar arm flexion and extension movements into several parts and training them separately, such as eccentric control technology training, can better grasp the essentials of the movements and improve the quality of completion.

　　progressive load training: During the training process, gradually increase the intensity and difficulty of training, such as increasing weight, reducing rest time, etc., to stimulate the muscles to continuously adapt and grow.

Things to note during training

　　shoulder joint protection: During parallel bar arm flexion and extension, the shoulder joints bear greater pressure. When training, pay attention to correct posture and avoid excessive abduction or internal rotation of the shoulder joint to prevent injury.

　　breathing rhythm: A reasonable breathing rhythm can provide sufficient oxygen for training and improve training effects. Generally speaking, inhale when lowering and exhale when raising.

　　The qualified number of parallel bar arm flexion and extension is crucial in the military physical fitness assessment. It reflects the upper limb strength and overall physical fitness of soldiers. The number of passes is not fixed and will vary according to different age groups, gender and other factors.
