Acute Impact of Static, Dynamic, and Proprioceptive Exercises on Proprioception, Strength, Balance, and Explosive Power

Plain-language summary

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the acute effects of static stretching, dynamic stretching, and proprioceptive exercises on proprioception, muscle strength, balance, and explosive power in young athletes. The study aims to determine how different stretching and exercise modalities influence short-term performance parameters. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: Do static stretching, dynamic stretching, and proprioceptive exercises have different acute effects on proprioception? Do these interventions cause different changes in muscle strength, balance, and explosive power? Researchers will compare the static stretching, dynamic stretching, and proprioceptive exercise groups to determine which method produces greater improvements in the measured performance parameters. Participants will: Perform one of the three assigned exercise protocols according to a standardized warm-up procedure Undergo pre- and post-exercise assessments, including: Proprioception (measured with an isokinetic device) Muscle strength (measured with an isokinetic device) Balance (measured with a Y balance test and BESS balance test) Explosive power (measured with the Sargent Vertical Jump Test)
