“…The training program utilized in this study was a synthesis of exercises used in published research studies 6,15,17,19,21,23,[26][27][28][29] and prevention techniques developed through recent empirical and analytical evaluations of neuromuscular training programs. The 3 components of the dynamic neuromuscular training protocol utilized in this study include: (1) balance training and hip/pelvis/trunk strengthening, (2) plyometrics and dynamic movement training, and (3) resistance training.…”

Study Design: Controlled single-group pretest/posttest design. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine if a 6-week neuromuscular training program designed to decrease the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries would improve single-limb postural stability in young female athletes. We hypothesized neuromuscular training would result in an improvement in postural stability, with the greatest improvement taking place in the medial-lateral direction. Background: Balance training has become a common component of programs designed to prevent ACL injury. Rehabilitation programs can improve postural stability following ACL injury and reconstruction; however, there is limited information available which quantifies improvement of postural stability following neuromuscular training designed to prevent ACL injuries in a healthy population. Methods and Measures: Forty-one healthy female high school athletes (mean age, 15.3 years; age range, 13-17 years) participated in this study. Single-limb postural stability for both lower extremities was assessed with a Biodex Stability System. The neuromuscular training program consisted of three 90-minute training sessions per week for 6 weeks. Following the completion of the training program, each subject was re-evaluated to determine change in total, anteriorposterior, and medial-lateral single-limb stability. Two-way analysis of variance models were used to determine differences between pretraining and posttraining and between limbs. Results: The subjects showed a significant improvement in single-limb total stability (P = .004) and anterior-posterior stability (P = .001), but not medial-lateral stability (P = .650) for both the right and left lower extremity following training. In addition, the subjects demonstrated significantly better total postural stability on the right side as compared to the left (P = .026). Conclusions: A 6-week neuromuscular training program designed to decrease the incidence of ACL injuries improves objective measures of total and anterior-posterior single-limb postural stability in high school female athletes.

“…It appears from Table 4 that those studies that have used 180 seconds inter-set rest resulted in average increases of 2.0% in upper body power and 10% in lower body power (McEvoy and Newton, 1998;Wilson, Newton, Murphy and Humphries, 1993;Young and Bilby, 1993), while studies that used 120 seconds inter-set rest resulted in an average increase of 14% in the lower body (Jones, Bishop, Hunter and Fleisig, 2001;Kraemer et al, 2003). It is important to remember, however, that differences in the training duration, subject demographics, training loads, and the methods and / or tools used to assess muscular power have confounded our understanding in this area.…”

“…According to several authors, success in sport depends upon the development of strength and power qualities, all of which contribute to sprint, COD, and sports longitudinal sprint, COD, and jump performance changes in collegiate football players, confirming that greatest performance gains are generally seen during athletes first year of intercollegiate competition. Kraemer et al [27] demonstrated that during a collegiate soccer season, significant decrements in 20-yd sprint speed (4%) and vertical jump (14%) were observed whilst following an in-season RT program of 75-85% 1RM, however concurrent aerobic endurance training was based on individual preference, which could have influenced the findings. It was reported elsewhere that collegiate soccer players maintained 9.1-m and 36.5-m sprint, and vertical jump performance throughout a competitive season in whilst following an unplanned nonlinear periodization format [30].…”

“…Sheppard et al [23] found changes in jump, and strength performance over two years in volleyball players as they transitioned from junior to senior national playing level.

This study aimed to examine performance changes in lacrosse players during a 24-week competitive season (including 22 weeks of periodized resistance training (RT)). Eleven male lacrosse players (age 24.5 ± 4.3 years, height 180.4 ± 5.6 cm, body mass 80.5 ± 5.7 kg, 1 repetition maximum (1RM) back squat (BS) 113.3 ± 17.8 kg, 1RM power clean (PC) 67.2 ± 19.7 kg) participated in this study. Testing included 5-, 10-, 20-m sprints, change of direction (COD), countermovement jump (CMJ), and squat jump (SJ). Testing sessions occurred during week one (T-1), week six (T-2), week 15 (T-3), and week 24 (T-4) of a domestic season. Significant improvements in 20-m sprint performance occurred from T-1 to T-4 (3.04 ± 0.07 seconds, 2.98 ± 0.08 seconds, p = 0.018). Left leg COD tests significantly improved from T-1 to T-2 (3.20 ± 0.15 seconds, 3.10 ± 0.13 seconds, p = 0.005), and T-1 to T-4 (3.20 ± 0.15 seconds, 3.07 ± 0.12 seconds, p = 0.014). Right leg COD tests significantly improved from T-1 to T-4 (3.20 ± 0.15 seconds, 3.08 ± 0.12 seconds, p = 0.002), and T-3 to T-4 (3.20 ± 0.15 seconds, 3.08 ± 0.12 seconds, p = 0.001). SJ height significantly decrease from T-1 to T-2 (38.2 ± 2.63 centimeters, 36.7 ± 2.57 centimeters, p = 0.008). Results demonstrate that improvements in sprint and COD performance can occur during the season in male lacrosse players engaged in periodized RT, therefore coaches and strength and conditioning coaches should focus on development rather than maintenance in season. KeywordsPeriodization; Sprint performance; Power; Monitoring performance [2,3]. Performance measures such as strength, power, and speed are often monitored and assessed to indicate an athlete's current level of physical performance as well as response to a training stimulus. Video analysis of work: rest intervals in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I men's lacrosse reported that performance relied primarily on anaerobic metabolism [4], although no direct metabolic measurements were calculated. Research on male club team lacrosse players has indicated that aerobic capacity levels in these athletes are similar to values seen in college basketball, team handball, and ice hockey athletes but less than observed in soccer players [5][6][7]. Similarly, power output in Lacrosse players has also shown to be much lower than that seen for other anaerobic athletes (i.e. football and basketball players) [5,6]. To the author's knowledge, these are the only two studies on male lacrosse players, describing the physiological needs of lacrosse, and detailing performance variables for male club players [4,6].Several studies have documented the physiological and anthropometric characteristics of professional athletes [8][9][10][11] Although these studies have described the physical characteristics of professional athletes and provided insight into the physiological demands of several sports such as soccer [9], lacrosse [7,12] Extensive research has examined the magnitude of change in performance expected over short periods of ...
