The objective of this study was to verify the effect of active and passive recovery on blood lactate concentration and power performance. Twelve male subjects were submitted to a maximal strength test in the the bench press, a maximal aerobic test in the bench step, and to four sets of bench press exercise performed as fast and as long as possible, using 80% of maximal strength when active or passive recovery was performed. The maximum number of repetitions, mean and peak power in eccentric and concentric phases were computed and blood lactate concentration was measured. Comparisons for the variables were made using a two-way variance analysis (recovery type and set numer) with repeated measures in the second factor. When significant differences were detected (p &lt; 0.05), a Tukey post-hoc test was used. There was a main effect of set number on maximum number of repetitions (p &lt; 0.05) (1 &gt; 2, 3, and 4; 2 &gt; 3 and 4; 3 &gt; 4). Mean and peak power in both eccentric and concentric phases also differed across sets (1 &gt; 2, 3, and 4; 2 &gt; 4). There was also a main effect for the recovery type, with lower values (p &lt; 0.05) observed for the active recovery compared to the passive one. It can be concluded that active recovery resulted in lower lactate concentration, but did not improve power performance in the bench press exercise.
