Brief Summary

A focal vibration device will be used to perform an activation and warm-up protocol before performing a set of 7 repetitions of squat with 60% of your 1RM.

Conditions

To Assess the Effectiveness of a Focal Vibration Treatment on Squat Power and Speed in Athletes Who Perform Squats

Study Design

• Allocation Method: RANDOMIZED
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Primary Study Purpose: OTHER
• Blinding Strategy: DOUBLE

Study Groups

Vibration group

The vibration group receives an intervention with focal vibration heads from Wintecare on the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis and vastus medialis , at the same time that the athelte is doing active muscle contractions.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Focal Vibration

Intervention Type: OTHER

Focal vibration is a 3x3 electrode placed on the athlete's muscle belly, and emits a high frequency vibration (150Hz) to stimulate the muscle spindle and generate greater muscle activation.

Sham group

The placebo group receives the same protocol but the head of the focal vibration machine is not in contact with the patient's skin.

Group Type: SHAM_COMPARATOR

Sham focal vibration

Intervention Type: OTHER

Is a focal vibration intervention but without conctact in the athelte's skin. Doing this we got a sham therapy
