Potential benefits of warm-up for neuromuscular performance of older athletes.
نویسنده
چکیده
Demographic trends project increasing numbers of older people to engage in exercise programs and sports. Sustained participation depends on both perceived health outcomes and avoidance of debilitating injuries. This review explores the potential benefits of physiologically based warm-up strategies to alleviate some key age-related decreases in the biomechanical capacity for skilled sport movements.

Comparison of The Effectiveness of Traditional and Post-Activation Potentiation Warm-Up Methods on EMG Variables of Selected Lower Limb Muscles During Squat Jump
Purpose: A proper warm-up method can be used as a strategy to improve performance of athletes in various sport fields. The aim of present study was to compare the effect of two traditional and post-activation potentiation warm-up methods on electromyographic variables of lower extremity muscles during squat jump. Methods: Fourteen trained male athletes were randomly performed three different p...
متن کاملTime-dependent postural control adaptations following a neuromuscular warm-up in female handball players: a randomized controlled trial
BACKGROUND Female handball athletes are at a particular risk of sustaining lower extremity injuries. The study examines time-dependent adaptations of static and dynamic balance as potential injury risk factors to a specific warm-up program focusing on neuromuscular control. METHODS Fourty one (24.0 ± 5.9 years) female handball athletes were randomized to an intervention or control group. The ...
متن کاملThe effectiveness of a dynamic warm-up in improving performance in college athletes.
Warming up before performing rigorous physical activity is typically done to increase range of motion and improve athletic performance. Common warm-up techniques in college athletics include static stretching, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching, dynamic warm-ups, and sport-specific activities. However, the type of warm-up routine used in the college setting varies based ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the effectiveness of coach-led neuromuscular warm-up on reducing lower extremity (LE) injuries in female athletes in a mixed-ethnicity, predominantly low-income, urban population. DESIGN Cluster randomized controlled trial. SETTING Chicago public high schools. PARTICIPANTS Of 258 coaches invited to participate, 95 (36.8%) enrolled (1558 athletes). Ninety coaches and...
متن کاملEffect of a neuromuscular training program on the kinetics and kinematics of jumping tasks.
In their study, 30 female college athletes performed a neuromuscular training program before practice 6 days per week for 6 weeks. Chappell and Limpisvasti reported task-specific improvements in kinetic and kinematic parameters after participants completed the intervention. Interestingly, they also concluded that " Completion of a 6-week neuromuscular training program improved select athletic p...
