Acute Effect of Basketball-Specific Exercise on Lower Limb Injury Risk Mechanisms in Male Basketball Players U16 and U18
Original language description
The aim of this study was to examine and compare the acute effects of basketball specific fatigue on muscular stiffness and reactive strength in male adolescent basketball players of two age categories. Reactive strength, expressed by means of reactive strength index (RSI), and leg stiffness (LS) as mechanisms associated with the risk of ACL injury were measured in 11 players category U16 (age 16.1 ± 0.4 years; body height 185 ± 6.5; body mass 74.3 ± 9.9 kg) and 10 players category U18 (age 17.7 ± 0.4 years; body height 187 ± 5.7 cm; body mass 79.7 ± 7.4 kg) pre and post simulated basketball match play (SBFP28). RSI was determined by a drop jump test, leg stiffness (LS) by a 20 sub-maximal two-legged hopping test. There was no significant effects of SBFP28 on the monitored parameters with the exception of RSI for U16 (p = 0.013, r = 0.53). There were also no significant differences in the fatigue related responses to SBFP28 for RSI and LS between age groups. These results indicate that irrespective of age, stabilization function of the knee muscles was not impaired and consequently risk of ACL injury was not increased irrespective of the age category.
