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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of a warm up prior to competition or training is to get the athlete ready for the rigors of the session, game, or practice. This study was designed to investigate whether the sequence of a warm up would affect vertical jump performance in male division 3 collegiate athletes. A true experimental design was used. Subjects completed two different warm up protocols in the college varsity weight room separated by at least 48 hours. The first warm up protocol consisted of a static stretch warm up followed by a dynamic warm up. The second warm up protocol was a dynamic warm up followed by a static stretch warm up. The researcher performed a repeated measures t-test and found subjects who completed the static-dynamic warm up (27.974 ± 4.09) had significantly (p

Book The Effect of Overload Warm up on Vertical Jump and Shot put Performance  microform

Download or read book The Effect of Overload Warm up on Vertical Jump and Shot put Performance microform written by Ian Newhouse and published by National Library of Canada. This book was released on 1983 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to explore the possibility of immediate temporary power gain, as seen in the vertical jump and shot-put performance through a warm-up of jumps and puts with added resistance. Twenty-two skilled jumpers and 11 skilled shot-putters volunteered to participate in the study. The jumpers were top Edmonton area athletes active in track and field, volleyball or basketball, while the shot-putters' skill levels ranged from 9 to 14 meters for females and 12 to 16 meters for males. Half of the subjects were female, and all were between the ages of 18 and 31. Each subject was tested under 3 different warm-up conditions for both the vertical jump and shot-put experiments: 1. Control "A", 1 pre-test trial/6 warm-up trials with no overload/ 1 post-test trial; 2. Control "B", 1 pre-test trial/no warm-up but a 7 minute rest/ 1 post-test trial; 3. Experimental, 1 pre-test trial/6 warm-up trials with overload, which was a 40 to 60 kilogram weight bar on the shoulders for the jumps and a 2 to 4 pound heavier shot for the puts/1 posttest trial. The 6 possibilities of different test sequences were randomly assigned to the subjects. In a supplementary experiment, 6 of the shot-putters warmed up with the heavier shot in an actual competition. The jumping experiment made use of high speed photography, a force plate, and integrated electromyogram. In the shot-put experiment, the only parameter measured was the distance of the put. From 18 possible warm-up categories, statistical analysis found the post-test trial to be significantly better (at the 0.05 level) than the pre-test trial in the following 6 categories: Sex Group Event Male and female combined Experimental Vertica1 jump Female Experimental Vertical jump Male and female combined Experimental Shot-put Male Experimenta1 Shot-put Male and female combined Control "A" Shot-put Female Control "A" Shot-put A second post-test trial was added for 6 of the subjects in the experiment, for it was felt that the timing of the movements might be offset by the overload warm-up. This brought a further significant improvement to the experimental group as the timing was apparently regained. Although the experimental group did improve to a greater degree than either of the controls, a significant difference.could not be found in comparisons between the three groups. Despite the inconclusive findings, the results did show promise that the proper application of resistance in a warm-up could aid skilled performance in explosive power events.
