Brief Summary:
Cold water immersion CWI and percussive massage therapy PMT are commonly used re-covery techniques in team sports In particular despite its wide use PMT has been scarcely investigated in the literature especially regarding neuromuscular measures and in comparison with other techniques This study aims to evaluate and compare the acute and short-term ef-fects 24 h of CWI and PMT on muscle strength contractile properties and soreness after exercise A randomized crossover study will be performed on sixteen male soccer players 22 y 20-27 who participate in three experimental sessions involving high-intensity training and 12-min recovery including CWI 10 C water bilateral PMT on the anterior and posterior thigh or passive resting Outcomes will be assessed immediately after the exercise protocol after the recovery intervention and at 24 h Isometric knee extension IKE and flexion IKF and tensiomyography TMG will be assessedMuscle soreness and fatigue will be scored from 0 to 10
Detailed Description:
Participants will be invited to participate to a cross-over randomized trial consisting in 3 experimental sessions at 7 days of distance one from another During each experimental session participants will be asked to train for about 45 min at a high-intensity protocol High-Intensity Intermittent Running plyometric jumps and isometric chair position After the exercise participants will be assessed for neuromuscular function isometric strength and tensiomyography as well as perceived soreness and fatigue Then in a randomized order participants will receive three different recovery interventions cold water immersion percussive massage or a passive control condition After the recovery intervention outcomes are assessed again as well as at 24 h Isometric strength is assessed with a dynamometer during knee extension and knee flexion Tensiomyography is performed on the thigh muscles and time to contraction and radial displacement are considered as outcomes Soreness and fatigue are rated by the participant from 0 to 10
