Abstract

Objectives: This intervention study aimed to evaluate how the use of Foam Roller (FR) as a recovery strategy affects water polo performance after a seven-week (28-session) program.

Design: A randomized controlled trial.

Methods: Thirty water polo players (14 male amateur players and 16 female sub-elite players) were assigned by means of sealed opaque envelopes to the control group (CG) or Foam Roller Group (FRG) and performed the same total number and intensity of training sessions. Test protocols were performed before (pretest), in-test (week 5), and after the intervention period (posttest). These included water polo-specific performance tests such as in-water boost, throwing speed, and 20 m sprint swimming tests. In addition, during the intervention, heart rate (HR), the scale of perceived exertion of the session (sRPE), and total quality recovery scale (TQR) data were recorded.

Results: There were no differences in the baseline values in any of the variables analyzed between CG and FRG. A small decrease in in-water boost was observed in CG (-2%, ES = -0.35 [-0.95: 0.26], p = 0.016, very likely small) and in FRG (-2%, ES = -0.33 [-0.93: 0.27], p = 0.021, likely small). No significant changes were found in either the 20 m swim test or the throwing test in CG and FRG. No clear differences among groups and weeks were found in sRPE, TQR and HR.

Conclusion: The findings indicate that the use of FR as a recovery tool after training and matches is not useful in water polo players.

泡沫滚揉恢复法对水球运动员表现的影响：随机对照试验。

目的：本干预研究旨在评估使用泡沫滚轮（FR）作为恢复策略对水球运动成绩的影响：本干预研究旨在评估使用泡沫滚轮（FR）作为恢复策略对水球运动表现的影响：设计：随机对照试验：30 名水球运动员（14 名男性业余运动员和 16 名女性亚精英运动员）通过密封的不透明信封被分配到对照组（CG）或泡沫滚轮组（FRG），并进行总次数和强度相同的训练。分别在干预前（前测）、干预中（第 5 周）和干预后（后测）进行测试。这些测试包括水球专项性能测试，如水中助推、投掷速度和 20 米冲刺游泳测试。此外，在干预期间，还记录了心率（HR）、疗程感知消耗量表（sRPE）和总质量恢复量表（TQR）数据：结果：CG 和 FRG 在任何分析变量的基线值上都没有差异。在 CG（-2%，ES = -0.35 [-0.95: 0.26]，p = 0.016，可能很小）和 FRG（-2%，ES = -0.33 [-0.93: 0.27]，p = 0.021，可能很小）中观察到水中增压略有下降。在 20 米游泳测试或投掷测试中，CG 和 FRG 均未发现明显变化。在 sRPE、TQR 和 HR 方面，各组和各周之间没有发现明显差异：研究结果表明，在训练和比赛后使用 FR 作为恢复工具对水球运动员并无益处。

期刊介绍： The Physician and Sportsmedicine is a peer-reviewed, clinically oriented publication for primary care physicians. We examine the latest drug discoveries to advance treatment and recovery, and take into account the medical aspects of exercise therapy for a given condition. We cover the latest primary care-focused treatments serving the needs of our active patient population, and assess the limits these treatments govern in stabilization and recovery. The Physician and Sportsmedicine is a peer-to-peer method of communicating the latest research to aid primary care physicians’ advancement in methods of care and treatment. We routinely cover such topics as: managing chronic disease, surgical techniques in preventing and managing injuries, the latest advancements in treatments for helping patients lose weight, and related exercise and nutrition topics that can impact the patient during recovery and modification.
