Özet

The aim of this study was to examine the acute effects of self-myofascial release technique applied to the plantar myofascial through tennis ball on jumping performance of taekwondo athletes. Randomized controlled experimental method was used in this cross-sectional study. 46 competitive taekwondo athletes with >= 3 years' experience participated in research voluntarily. Participants were randomly divided into two groups: control (mean age: 21.21 +/- 2.27; height 173.08 +/- 4.89; body weight 63.17 +/- 7.06) and experimental (mean age: 21.00 +/- 2.55; height 170.56 +/- 5.06; body weight 57.60 +/- 8.46). As a pre-test, the vertical jump performance values of both groups were taken after 5 minutes of running and 4-5 minutes of rest. After 48 hours, the vertical jump performance values of the control group were taken again after 5 minutes of running only. The vertical jump performance values of the experimental group were obtained after the self-myofascial release technique, which consists of three sets applied for 20 seconds each, following a 5-minute slow pace run. SPSS (SPSS version 26.0, Armonk, NY) was used to analyze the research data. As a result of the findings obtained in the study, it was observed that there were no statistically significant differences between the vertical jump performance pretest-posttest values of the control and experimental groups (p<.05). As a result, it was concluded that the self-myofascial release technique applied to the plantar myofascial by means of a tennis ball did not have an acute effect on the jumping performance of taekwondo athletes.
