Acute effects of optimal power load flywheel half-squat training on lower limb explosive power under different load volumes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To explore the effects of flywheel half-squat interventions with different volumes of optimal power load (OPL) on post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) in countermovement jump (CMJ) height and 30 m sprint performance among collegiate athletes.

Methods

A randomized crossover design was employed, recruiting 20 collegiate athletes to participate in the experiment. After determining each participant's OPL, four different training load schemes were arranged for eight formal experiments, including four CMJ tests and four 30 m sprint tests. The differences between baseline and post-intervention at 0, 4, 8, and 12 min were compared. A two-factor repeated measures ANOVA was used for data analysis, with a significance level set at P < 0.05, and Cohen's d val
