Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the acute effects of different myofascial relaxation exercise times applied using foam roller on reaction balance and arrow shooting performance in archers. For this purpose, a total of 12 athletes between the ages of 18-20, who have been actively involved in archery for the last two years, took part in the study voluntarily. The mean age of the participants was 18.92±0.79 years, average height was 171.83±6.99 cm, body weight was 65.67±5.97 kg, BMI was 22.23±1.28. On different days, control application, experimental application foam roller 30 seconds, experimental application 60 seconds method with foam roller were applied to the subjects, immediately after, visual and auditory reaction test, balance and arrow shooting performance applications were made. In the control application, tests were applied to the subjects without any myofascial release protocol. The obtained data were analyzed in SPSS 22.0 program. In order to determine the difference between the applications, one-way analysis of variance and LSD tests were applied in repeated measurements. As a result of the statistical analysis, a significant difference was observed in favor of the experimental applications (30-60 seconds) compared to the control application in the visual and auditory reaction tests, balance and arrow shooting performance tests (p<0.05). In terms of arrow shooting performance scores, there was a significant difference in favor of experimental applications in favor of experimental applications, 30 seconds of foam roller application and 60 seconds of application in favor of 30 seconds compared to control application. As a result, we can say that different myofascial relaxation exercises applied with foam roller affect reaction balance and arrow shooting performance positively.
