Effects of Resistive Preloading in Trained and Untrained Individuals

Abstract Details

2020, Master of Science, Miami University, Kinesiology, Nutrition, and Health.
Background: Resistive preloading is effective as a pre-contest warm-up methodology for ballistic events due to its potent neuromuscular enhancing properties. Objective: The current study aims to examine the benefits of resistive preloading in trained and untrained persons. Methods: Twenty-four healthy male college students, age 18-28, were recruited for placement into one of two groups; trained or untrained. Five trials of maximal vertical jump were performed on two occasions, one preceded by preload (back-squat exercise) and one not. Results: Significant main effects were found for treatment, trial, and training status. Jump performance significantly improved after a preload stimulus in both trained and untrained subjects. There were no significant effects indicating that training status effects post activation potentiation.
