Özet

The present study aimed to compare different pre-exercise strategies on jumping performance in female volleyball players. METHODS: Fifteen healthy female volleyball players (age=18 +/- 0.6 years; training experience = 7.3 +/- 1.4 years; height = 164.8 +/- 5.4 cm; body mass = 57.2 +/- 8.1 kg) volunteered to participate in the study. Three different pre-exercise conditions (5 repetition maximum knee extension, electromyostimulation [EMS] and ischemic preconditioning [IPC]) were applied to the subjects and compared to a control condition performing a standardized warmup. Subjects performed the squat jump and 15 sec repeated countermovement jumps following a rest period. Measures associated with jumping performance were collected and compared between conditions. Rating of perceived exertion was also collected after each performance test. RESULTS: No pre-exercise condition outperformed a standardized warm-up on inducing improvements in jumping performance and in fact, EMS and IPC conditions resulted in performance decrements compared to control (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that a standardized warm-up is enough to induce improvements in jumping performance in female volleyball players. Future research should examine alternative strategies alongside standardized warm-up to determine how best to prepare for jumping and related sport-specific tasks in female volleyball players.
