Download or read book Acute Effects of Different Types of Warm up Exercise on Performance written by Michelle Genin and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the acute effects of different types of warm-up exercise on flexibility and jump performance. Seventy two subjects (38 males, 34 females) performed static stretching (SS), dynamic stretching (OS), self-myofascial release with a foam roller (FR), and no warm-up prior (C) to the sit and reach test (SR), vertical jump (VJ), and standing broad jump (SBJ). Outcome measurements included SR measurement, VJ height, and SBJ distance. Data was analyzed using a one-way repeated measures analysis of variance. The difference in pre and post warm-up SR measurements were statistically significant (p = 0.000) following SS, OS, and FR in comparison to C. There were no significant effects in VJ height (p = 0.995), or in SBJ length following any of the warm-up protocols (p = 0.820). It was concluded that SS, OS, and FR have no acute effects on jump performance, but may increase low back and hamstring flexibility.

Book Make your sports training a real success

Download or read book Make your sports training a real success written by Cristina Botezatu and published by Rebiere. This book was released on with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of warm-up and recovery after exercise in sports performance Performance is a daily quest when you want to achieve the results of high performance sports. Physical preparation must optimally force the limits of the body to allow the improvement of the performance but at the same time without causing accidents. That is why it is very important for the training to be well planned so that no step is neglected. In this guide, we will analyse two of the most important stages of training that are often neglected or treated in a superficial way: warm-up and recovery after exercise. These two phases are valid in all sports disciplines but are often treated with little responsibility. However, their role is crucial and they have a great influence on the organization and especially on the sporting performance. The correct realization of these two phases can bring a huge added value to the performance of the athlete, to the longevity of his practice but also to his general state of health. Discover useful recommendations and tips, but also exercises with pictures in this little guide. We initiated a collaboration with a senior scientist who trained athletes who successfully participated in the Olympics. Cristina Botezatu brings her experience and especially her results to this reference book that will allow all athletes to answer legitimate questions about a sometimes neglected aspect of their training. You will discover clear, organized and accessible information, along with photos to learn how to make your training a real success! What will you find in this handy and useful guide “Make your sports training a real success”? a clear presentation of the levers that act directly on sports training to increase sports performance warm-up – planning, exercises, other factors warming up of the main muscle groups active-specific warming up recovery of the body after exercise stretching – importance, benefits and exercises So, are you in the starting blocks to perform?

Book The Global Effects of Differing Durations of Static Stretching Within a Full Warm up Protocol on Subsequent Voluntary Performance and Evoked Contractile Properties

Download or read book The Global Effects of Differing Durations of Static Stretching Within a Full Warm up Protocol on Subsequent Voluntary Performance and Evoked Contractile Properties written by Jonathan Christopher Reid and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evidence for performance decrements with prolonged static stretching (SS)(>60s per muscle group) has led to a paradigm shift in optimal stretching routines within a full warm-up protocol. Many athletic teams and individuals have now incorporated dynamic stretching (DS) and dynamic activity (DA) rather than SS into their pre-exercise warm-up routines. However, much of the previous research examining SS did not incorporate all three components of a full warm-up protocol (aerobic, SS and DS/DA activity). Based on previous literature, the objective of the present study was to compare differing durations of SS (30, 60, and 120 seconds per muscle group or a control condition with no SS) within in a full warm-up protocol on various testing measures. Sixteen male participants (Sixteen males; 27.6 ± 2.15 years, 187.1 ± 15.3 lb. and 181.9 ± cm) with an athletic background and at least 2 years of strength and endurance training experience completed four conditions, each condition included a prior submaximal 5-minute aerobic warm-up on a cycle ergometer, one of the four SS interventions (0, 30, 60 or 120s per muscle group) and a subsequent DS/DA component. Results of the present study serve as evidence that prolonged durations of SS (SS 120s) per muscle group, even with the inclusion of a DS/DA component can impair subsequent performance in vertical jump height, force production and rate of force production, evoked contractile properties and potentiated twitch forces, and the interpolated twitch technique. Results also show that ROM continues to increase immediately following each of the three components within the warm-up (aerobic, SS and DS/DA) in all conditions.
