The Effect of Regional and Whole Body Foam Roller Applications on 1 Repetition of Maximal Strenght Measurement

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of local quadriceps-hamstring (LFR) and Foam Roller (WBFR) performed to the whole body (calf, hamstring, quadriceps, adductor and latissimus dorsi) on quadriceps and hamstring 1 repeat maximal strength (1RM). The total of 14 volunteers who play soccer in the regional amateur league, participated to this study (age: 20.85 ± 3.97, Height: 1.78 ± .054 Kg: 64.55 ± 9.61, BMI: 20:21 ± 2.57). In the first stage, foam roller (FR) were performed to the H:Q muscle groups for 2x30 seconds to the athletes, and then 1RM strength measurements were performed until they were exhausted. After 3 days, FR was performed to the whole body for 2x30 seconds, and the athletes performed the 1RM strength test until they were exhausted. In the statistical analysis of the study, according to the conformity of the data to normal distribution, paired sample t-test and wilcoxon signed rank test were performed, and then the effect size was calculated. The results of the study showed that FR performed to the whole body produced more positive 1RM strength results compared to local FR performs (p <0.05). According to the results of this research, it is thought that the athletes will get more efficiency from the maximal strength results after FR performs they will perform to the whole body before 1RM strength measurements.

Bölgesel ve Tüm Vücut Foam Roller Uygulamalarının 1 Tekrar Maksimal Kuvvet Ölçümüne Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı sadece bölgesel olarak quadriceps-hamstring (BFR) ve tüm vücuda uygulanan (calf, hamstring, quadriceps, adductor ve latisimusdorsi) foam roller (TFR) uygulamalarının quadriceps ve hamstring (H:Q) 1 Tekrar maksimal (1TM) kuvvet üzerine etkilerini araştırmaktır. Çalışmaya Türkiye bölgesel amatör Liginde futbol oynayan toplam 14 gönüllü sporcu katılım gösterdi (Yaş: 20.8±3.9, Boy: 1.78±.054, Kg: 64.5±9.6, Vücut kütle indeksi: 20.2±2.5). Sporculara ilk aşamada BFR uygulamaları 2x30 saniye olacak şekilde H:Q kas gruplarına uygulatıldı ve ardından 1TM kuvvet ölçümleri tükeninceye kadar uygulatıldı. 3 gün sonra FR uygulaması tüm vücuda 2x30 saniye uygulandı ve ardından sporcular 1TM kuvvet testini tükeninceye kadar gerçekleştirildi. Çalışmanın istatistiksel analizlerinde verilerin normal dağılım uygunluğuna göre paired sample t-testi ve wilcoxon sıralı işaretler testi uygulanıp daha sonrasında etki büyüklüğü hesaplandı. Sonuç olarak; BFR uygulamalarına göre TFR uygulamalarının H:Q 1TM kuvveti üzerine olumlu etkisi ortaya çıkarttığı görülmüştür (p <0.05). Bu araştırmanın sonuçları antrenörlere sporcularının 1TM kuvvet ölçümleri öncesinde tüm vücuda uygulayacakları FR uygulamaları sonrasında maksimal kuvvet sonuçlarından daha fazla verim alabilmeleri konusunda bilgiler verebilmektedir.
