The use of foam rolling in different orders does not influence the vertical jump performance in basketball athletes
Abstract
The warm-up is one of the components present in the sports to reduce the risk of injury and improve the performance of the next activity. Recently, the foam rolling (FR) has received greater attention among athletes and coaches of different modalities to achieve these purposes with the aim of improving the performance of the main activity or at least not interfere negatively the same. The aim of the present study was to verify the effects of different FR protocols on the performance of vertical jump in male basketball athletes. For that, 12 male participants (23,75 ± 2,89 years) were evaluated in three different protocols after a familiarization session (total of four visits with an interval of 48-72h). The first protocol, caudal cranial (CRCA), the subject performed three sets of 30 seconds of FR on the muscles of the pectoral, latissimus dorsi, glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calf to then perform the vertical jump. In the second protocol, cranial caudal (CACR), the technique was performed on the same muscles, but in the opposite order to then perform the vertical jump. In the control protocol, subjects performed only the vertical jump test. The results didn’t show significant differences between the protocols. Therefore, at least in an acute way, the technique doesn’t seem to be harmful to the parameters evaluated in the vertical jump test, such as jump height and time of flight, thus an interesting alternative to include in the training routine of practitioners of this modality without deleterious effects on performance.
