Resumen

Strength training is essential for maintaining and optimizing health and is an effective non-pharmacological resource in the treatment of various comorbidities. The repercussions revolve around the promotion of motivated adaptations due to the planning and structuring of the training program through the manipulation of variables such as intensity, volume, selection and order of exercises, weekly frequency, cadence, and amplitude. These include the manipulation of variables such as intensity, volume, exercise selection and order, recovery interval, weekly frequency, cadence, and amplitude. This study aims to discuss the importance of anatomical knowledge and the use of an appropriate execution technique, which must be applied in strength exercises. However, what can be observed in practice is a lack of methodology, as well as an undefined movement standard of exercises, which is based on the premise of improving body composition. In this context, the study points to the need for a more robust discussion on the movement standard and the application of an adequate execution technique in three exercises commonly prescribed in physical training programs. Implementing a proper execution technique based on origin, muscle and joint insertion and actions could optimize strength, hypertrophy, and weight loss results. And, since improving these components is related to a reduction in comorbidities, there is a need for studies that discuss the role of movement execution in greater depth. Thus, further research could evoke a debate on the feasibility of incorporating execution technique as the eighth variable in muscle strength training.
