Brief Summary:
Plyometric training PT is training consisting of exercises that enable the muscles to reach maximum strength in minimum time PE improves lower extremity muscle strength jumping performance agility reaction time Although plyometric exercises contribute greatly to increasing athlete performance athletes cannot apply PE due to loading procedures at all times of the season PEs in the literature generally involve active application of exercises The definition of exercise includes not only physical exercise but also mental exercise Athletes can use mental exercises as complementary training methods that can complement or add to physical training to compensate for their deficiencies When mental exercises are examined we often encounter two concepts These are action observation AO and motor imagery MI MI imagines a task without actually performing it AO is when a person watches a certain action being performed by another third party or while the video is being played back There are studies showing that training on MI and AO methods creates more activation in the brain when applied together Although the definition of motor imagery has been broadly separated from action more recent imagery theories have led to the concept of dynamic motor imagery DMI the practice of athletes adopting a harmonious body position and embodying the spatial and temporal properties of movement without performing the entire movement To the best of our knowledge no study has been found in which PT based on MI and AO was performed on female volleyball players Additionally to our knowledge the effectiveness of DMI on female volleyball players has not been investigated Therefore the aim of our study is PT based on MI and AO is applied to female volleyball players in two different ways The aim is to investigate the effects of balance jumping agility and reaction time and to compare the effectiveness of these two methods
Detailed Description:
45 licensed female volleyball players between the ages of 18 and 25 will be included in the study Volleyball players will be randomized into three groups Group A Group B Group C Group A- Routine training MI and AO Heshe will be included in an MI and AO based PT exercise program with a physiotherapist 2 days a week for 8 weeks Group B- Routine training DMI and AO will perform the same exercise program as DMI Group C- Control group will continue their routine training program for 8 weeks Demographic information of all patients to be included in the study will be recorded with the Case Evaluation Form The patients static balances were measured with the Performanz device their dynamic balances with the Y balance test their jumping performances with the My Jump 2 application and one-step jump test their agility performances with the shuttle running test and agility T test their reaction times with the Blazepod device their movement imagination abilities with the Movement Imagination Questionnaire It will be evaluated with -3 All data will be evaluated using statistical analysis methods
