Book Effects of Different Types of Warm up on Swimming Performance in Collegiate Swimmers

Download or read book Effects of Different Types of Warm up on Swimming Performance in Collegiate Swimmers written by Gytis Balilionis and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of three different types of warm-up on swimming performance in NCAA Division I swimmers. Eight male and eight female swimmers utilized three warm-up protocols prior to performing 50-yard (45.72-meter) freestyle swim trials each trial in counterbalanced order and separated by 48 hours. The warm-up protocols consisted of: (1) no warm-up, (2) short warm-up (50-yards at 40% maximal effort and 50-yards at 90%), (3) regular warm-up (swimmers own pre-competition warm-up). Following the warm-up regimen, participants rested for three minutes and completed a 50-yard freestyle swim trial. Heart rate pre- and post- trial, diving distance, reaction time, post warm-up RPE, post 50-yard trial RPE, and stroke count were measured. Times for 50-yard swim were significantly (p = 0.03) different among warm-ups. Mean 50-yard time was significantly (p = 0.01) faster after regular warm-up (24.95 " 1.53 sec) compared to short warm-up (25.26 " 1.61 sec) and approached significance between no- and regular- warm-ups (p = 0.06); however, no significant difference was found between no- (25.19 "1.54 sec) and short warm-ups (p = 0.59) on 50-yard time. Individual data indicated that 19% of participants performed their best 50-yard time after short warm-up, 37% after no-, and 44% after regular warm-up. Heart rate was significantly (p = 0.01) higher after regular warm-up (100 " 13 b/min) compared to no warm-up (88 " 18 b/min) and approached significance between short- and regular warm-ups (p = 0.07); however, no significant difference was observed between no- and short warm-ups (92 " 19 b/min) (p = 0.32). RPE was significantly (p

Book Resistance Training in Sprinting

Download or read book Resistance Training in Sprinting written by Robert R. Nooney and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resistance training is a common form of exercise in sport and activity. In track and field, a number of resistance training techniques exist to improve sprint performance. Sled, harness, parachute and weighted vest exercises are effective, but limitations exist. The wetsuit's on-land resistive qualities may improve sprint performance throughout multiple phases of sprinting and rid the limitations often found in conventional resisted sprinting techniques. The purpose of this study was to compare a wetsuit training method with a harness-pull technique and examine their effect on sprint performance in Division II collegiate track and field athletes. A pre/posttest design was used with subjects divided into four separate training groups (Wetsuit, Harness, Wetsuit and Harness, and Un-resisted). Variable data was collected on sprint performance at 20, 40, and 60 meter check points and on stride length/stride frequency at different phases during a maximal effort 60 meter sprint. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tested for significances between training groups. Although improvements occurred, no significant changes in sprint performance and sprint mechanics were observed. Statistical findings indicate training in a wetsuit, along with other conventional resisted sprinting techniques will not significantly improve sprint performance in track and field sprinters.

Book The Effect of Dynamic Warm Up with and Without the Use of the Vertimax on Athletic Performance in Collegiate Athletes

Download or read book The Effect of Dynamic Warm Up with and Without the Use of the Vertimax on Athletic Performance in Collegiate Athletes written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research suggests that moderate to high intensity dynamic warm up exercises can enhance the excitability of the fast twitch muscle fibers through Post-Activation Potentiation (PAP), and prime them to play a greater role during jumping and sprinting. The purpose of this study was to determine if VertiMax jumps executed at the end of a normal dynamic exercise warm up will signifcantly improve short term athletic performance. Twenty participants were randomly placed in one of 5 groups for the duration of the study. The subjects performed one of the following warm-ups determined by random selection: dynamic warm-up (DW) or a dynamic warm up plus VertiMax jumps (DWV). On Day 2 all the subjects participated in the opposite warm-up routine then what they performed on Day 1. Each session concluded with vertical jump and lane agility testing. No significant difference from DW to DWV for vertical jump was found [t(19) = 1.242, p > .05]. No significant difference from DWLA to DWVLA was found [t(19) = 1.082, p> .05]. The mean on the DWVVERT was 26.13 inches (sd=4.37), and the mean on the DWVERT was 25.83 inches (sd=4.55). The mean on the DWVLA was 11.03 seconds (sd = .77) and the mean on the DWLA was 11.13 seconds (sd = .65). It was concluded that a warm-up that includes a high intensity activity at the end of a dynamic warm up does not improve vertical jump or agility greater than dynamic warm up alone.

Book Investigation Into the Effect of Warm up on Intermittent Sprint Performance

Download or read book Investigation Into the Effect of Warm up on Intermittent Sprint Performance written by Pongson Yaicharoen and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] This PhD thesis consists of three separate but linked studies that focus on the concept of warm-up (WUP). While WUP is regularly performed prior to exercise by many athletes, its effect on subsequent exercise performance is equivocal. While there are many reasons for varying results between studies, it is possible that the intensity of WUP plays an important role in the outcome of subsequent exercise performance. Therefore, the aim of the first study was to investigate the effect of various WUP intensities (all based around individual lactate thresholds) on subsequent intermittent sprint performance (ISP), as well as the first sprint of ISP. A second aim of this first study was to determine which temperature (muscle; Tmu, rectal; Tre or body; Tb) best correlated with exercise performance (total work, power output of the first sprint and percentage work and power decrement). Results from this first study found no significant differences (P > 0.05) between any of the WUP conditions for any performance variable assessed. There was however, a tendency (ES {601} 0.5) for improved first sprint and ISP after a WUP that was performed at an intensity midway between lactate inflection (LI) and anaerobic threshold (also known as lactate threshold: LT). Further, there were no significant correlations between Tmu, Tre, or Tb assessed immediately after each WUP condition and any of the performance measures. ... The third study aimed to investigate the effect of an active WUP (performed at an intensity determined from study one) on prolonged ISP (80 min), as well as the first sprint of prolonged ISP, performed in hot and humid environmental conditions (35oC, 50% RH), compared to cooler conditions (~20-25oC, 20-40% RH). This study also assessed the effects of an active WUP compared to a passive WUP on 80 min of ISP undertaken in the heat (35oC, 50% RH). The only significant result for this study was represented by significantly improved peak power for the first sprint of prolonged IPS following passive WUP, compared to both active WUP conditions. Results from this study suggest that the main benefits of WUP are derived from temperature-related effects. Moreover, similar results for ISP performance following active compared to passive WUP may be explained by the following: (1) subjects used a pacing strategy throughout the exercise protocol; (2) the initial sprints performed following passive WUP provided similar effects to an active WUP over the period of prolonged exercise; (3) the effects of active and passive WUP diminish in a similar manner over the course of prolonged ISP, or (4) the metabolic and energy consequences of prolonged ISP override any benefits associated with WUP. Finally, environmental conditions did not have an effect on prolonged ISP or the first sprint of ISP that was preceded by an active WUP. These results may be related to core temperature values that did not reach critical levels proposed to impair exercise performance during exercise in hot and humid environmental conditions. Further studies are needed to investigate the effect of different WUP intensities (based on lactate thresholds) to those used in these studies on subsequent ISP in order to determine if a significant effect can be elicited. Of importance, a power analyses needs to be determined in order to make sure that participant numbers are adequate.
