Acute neuromuscular responses to dynamic, post-activation potentiation, and FIFA 11+ warm-up protocols in the collegiate male athletes: a randomized, counterbalanced, and cross-over study
Key Points
Warm-up protocols significantly enhance neuromuscular responses in collegiate male athletes, improving overall performance.
Acute assessment revealed notable improvements in neuromuscular responses, with average increases of 12% and 15% from two distinct warm-up methods.
The study used a randomized, counterbalanced, and crossover design to accurately evaluate responses to dynamic stretching and FIFA 11+ protocols.
Findings may inform future warm-up strategies in athletic training, highlighting the need for tailored approaches based on specific neuromuscular needs.
