Brief Summary: The hamstring muscle is one of the key elements in rehabilitation programs and sports activities that enable the restoration of optimal muscle length Decreased flexibility in the hamstring muscle may disrupt the biomechanics of the waist and pelvis leading to low back pain or musculoskeletal disorders

This study aims to investigate the acute effects of foam rolling and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching during warm-up on muscle flexibility strength and pain threshold in amateur athletes According to our research there is no study in this field in the literature

H1 There is a difference between the acute effects of foam rolling exercise and PNF stretching exercise on muscle flexibility during warm-up in amateur athletes

H2 There is a difference between the effects of foam rolling and PNF stretching exercises used as warm-up exercises on muscle strength

H3 Foam rolling and PNF stretching exercises applied to the Hamstring muscle as a warm-up exercise make a difference in the pain threshold of the lumbar region and Hamstring muscle
Detailed Description: Stretching techniques used in athletes are frequently and widely used due to many effects such as changing range of motion comfortable movement maintenance and removal There is no consensus in the literature on which of the static dynamic and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching techniques is most effective as opposed to the types of stretching for flexibility There is no clear benefit of different stretching techniques to muscle performance Accordingly in the literature it is seen that proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching techniques show a greater increase in joint range of motion compared to other stretching techniques

Recently the use of foam rolling has become widely used in sports applications due to similar effects seen in stretching and the hypothesized presence of a curative effect on muscle performance There is not enough research on the extent of foam rolling during warm-up exercises to increase flexibility and muscle strength

The hamstring muscle is one of the key elements in harmonious programs and sports activities that ensure the restoration of optimal muscle length The emergence of the output in the hamstring muscle may disrupt the biomechanics of the waist and pelvis causing low back pain or musculoskeletal disorders

This study aims to investigate the acute effects of foam rolling and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching on muscle input strength and pain intensity during nutrition in amateur athletes
