Muscle Loss Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of a Protocol of Plyometric Exercises in the Improvement of Quadriceps Muscle Strength Versus Isometric Exercises With Theraband Elastic Band in Federated Water Polo Players. A Randomized Pilot Study.
Introduction: The improvement of strength affects muscle volume, dynamic stability and sports
performance in water polo athletes. Plyometric exercises can improve biomechanics,
performance and the most explosive actions during sports. The work done with elastic bands
will increase the effectiveness and the resistance on the isometric exercises developed.
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of plyometric exercises in the increase of
quadriceps muscle strength, volume and stability dynamic in female athletic of water polo
players from 18 to 25 years old.
Study Design: A randomized, multicentric, single-blind clinical study with a follow-up
period.
Methodology: 25 water polo players will be recruited and randomly assigned to the two study
groups: experimental (plyometric exercises plus isometric exercises with elastic bands) and
control (isometric exercises with elastic bands). The intervention will last for 8 weeks,
with 3 weekly sessions, of 15 minutes each. The study variables will be: strength (measured
with the RM test), muscle volume (using anthropometry), and dynamic stability (through the
SEBT test). The analysis of normality will be carried out with the Shapiro Wilk test. In case
of homogeneity of the groups, we will use parametric tests: t-student test of repeated
measures (difference between evaluations) and ANOVA of repeated means (intra and intersubject
effect).
Expected Results: It is expected to observe improvement in muscle strength and quadriceps
volume, as well as dynamic stability.
