Abstract

Abstract Study aim: This study aimed to investigate the influence of combined plyometric and resistance training of lower limbs when administered for a shorter duration of six weeks on the stiffness of Achilles and patellar tendons as well as the jump height. Materials and methods: Twenty recreational athletes were administered six weeks of a single session of lower limb resistance training and one session of plyometric training every week for a total duration of six weeks. Tendon stiffness was measured using MyotonPro, and vertical jump height was derived from the force plate at baseline and six weeks after the intervention. Results: There was a statistically significant difference (p < 0.01) between the baseline and post-training measures of patellar and Achilles tendons stiffness as well as the squat jump (SJ) and countermovement jump (CMJ) height. Conclusion: Both resistance and plyometric training may be incorporated into the training session as combined training showed significant improvements in jump height and tendon stiffness after six weeks of combined RT and PT.

休闲运动员下肢增强训练和阻力训练对跟腱和髌骨僵硬度的影响
摘要研究目的:本研究旨在探讨短时间6周的下肢增强性和阻力联合训练对跟腱和髌骨肌腱僵硬度以及起跳高度的影响。材料与方法:对20名休闲运动员进行为期6周的下肢阻力训练,每周进行一次增强训练,共持续6周。使用MyotonPro测量肌腱刚度,并在基线和干预后6周从力板获得垂直跳跃高度。结果:基线与训练后髌骨、跟腱刚度、深蹲跳(SJ)和反动作跳(CMJ)高度比较,差异均有统计学意义(p < 0.01)。结论:阻力训练和增强训练都可以纳入训练课程,因为联合训练在6周的RT和PT联合训练后,跳跃高度和肌腱刚度有显著改善。
