Manual Therapies Clinical Trial
Official title:
Acute Effects of Spinal Manipulation on the Neuromuscular Performance of Amateur Cyclists: Pilot Study
The present study aims to assess the effects of spinal manipulation therapy on neuromuscular performance.
The present study will follow a parallel, pre-post design. The aim will be to determine the acute effects of spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) on different neuromuscular properties of recreational cyclists. Specifically, the investigators will measure the maximum force production capacity and muscle activation of the knee extensors concomitantly during a maximal voluntary contraction, as well as the maximum and mean power attained during a Wingate cycling test (i.e., 30 seconds 'all out'). Participants will undergo the tests on two different occasions separated by at least 48 hours and a maximum of 2 weeks. The same tests will be conducted in both testing sessions, but participants will be randomly assigned into two groups (sham or actual SMT) immediately before the second testing session. ;
