Summary

In the literature neuromuscular exercise programs are often used for prevention in sport players. Literature lacks of perturbation exercises and its effects on peroneal's muscle strength, fatigue and individual's performance parameters. This study will investigate if it is possible to achieve improvements on peroneal eccentric strength, fatigue, dynamic balance and individual's performance with the exercises mainly based on side perturbations.

Detailed description

Chronic ankle instability is very common in adolescent female basketball players. In the literature neuromuscular exercise programs are often used for prevention in sport players that usually contains of strength and/or balance exercises. Perturbation exercises are oftenly used in sport players for returning the sport or prevention but literature lacks of its effects statistically. This study will investigate if it is possible to achieve improvements on peroneal eccentric strength, fatigue, dynamic balance and individual's performance with the exercises mainly based on side perturbations. Strength and fatigue evaluations will be made with Cybex dynanometer. Dynamic balance evaluations will be made with Y-Balance Tests. Individual's performance parameter evaluations will be made with vertical jump test, cross jump test and side hop test.

Conditions

• Healthy Young Women
• Basketball Players

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Neuromuscular training	Neuromuscular training is designed as 8 weeks and 2 times a week, and approximately 20 minutes per session for Neuromuscular training+usual basketball training group. Other group is only going to keep attending usual basketball training. Neuromuscular training consisted 3 exercises: First exercise is passing the ball to side to side on bosu with standing on one leg. 60-90 seconds on time, 30-60 seconds off time. 2 sets for both passing sides and bilaterally. Second exercise is standing on bosu unilaterally and while standing stabilized, switching basketball hand to hand as dribbling on the floor. Exercise will be on for 60-90 seconds and off for 30-60 seconds, 2 sets for each side Third exercise is jumping with one stance/leg, and landing with double stance while a therabant is attached to the belly and pulling with a minimum/medium force from one side. Changing legs after one jump, 6 times for both side is equal to 1 set of the exercise. It will be done 2 sets for both sides.
