Abstract:

The choice of the most efficient warming programs prior to the training or competition is critical for performance. The aim of this study is to determine the acute effects of the dynamic and static heating protocols on speed, vertical jumping, balance and leg strength in young male footballers. The study included 13 young male footballers (age: 16,39±0,51 years) volunteers who fought in the school sports category of young people in the province of Muş. In the study, experimental research scheme was used from quantum research methods.  The study was designed for three days consecutive with the application of a different heating protocol on the same athletes every day. The data was recorded on young footballers by applying 20 m speed, vertical jumping, flamingo balance and leg strength tests after different heating protocols. For statistical analysis of data, the SPSS package program was used. The normality level of the data was determined by the Shapiro-Wilk test. In the analysis of normal distribution data, Repeated Measures ANOVA and post-training tests, the Bonferroni test, and in the analysis of non-normal distribution data, the Friedman test and the Bonferroni corrected Wilcoxon Signed Rank test were used. According to the research findings, a significant difference was determined between heating protocols in 20 m speed, vertical jumping and leg strength tests (p<0,05) while no significant difference was found in the balance test (p>0,05). As a result, the FIFA 11+ heating protocol applied to young male footballers can be said to be a fast and vertical jump, while the static heating protocol can be said to be a positive result in the strength of the leg.
