Official title
Assessment of the Impact of Hip Manipulation on Muscle Strength and Stiffness as Well as Motor Functionality of Basketball Players During Training
Overview
Currently, it is difficult to find studies in the literature assessing the impact of manual therapy on preventing lower limb injuries in basketball players, which may later translate into improved strength and balance in athletes, when planning training or therapy programming, e.g. in patients after ankle sprains.
Interventions
- Other Manual therapy
This technique involves a low-amplitude, high-velocity push on the hip joints with an additional two-second tension - Other Placebo
This technique involves a low-amplitude, high-velocity push on the shoulder and elbow joints with an additional two-second tension - Other Exercise
The following exercise will be performed: lunges
Primary outcome measures
- Assessment of MVC. [Time frame: The study will be conducted 3 times during one training session (before the intervention, after the intervention and after training). Each isometric muscle test lasts 3 seconds.]
- Assessment of MVC. [Time frame: The study will be conducted 4 times during one training session (before the intervention, after the intervention and after training).Each isometric muscle test lasts 3 seconds.]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Assessment of proprioception. [Time frame: The test will be performed three times during one training session (before the intervention, after the intervention, after the training). Each joint measurement will be performed at three settings: 15, 30, 45 degrees.]
- Y balance test [Time frame: The test will be conducted three times during one training session (before the intervention, after the intervention, after training).]
- Standing Long Jump Test [Time frame: The test will be conducted 3 times during one training session (before the intervention, after the intervention, after the training). Each test is repeated 3 times.]
