Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study aimed to determine whether the judo-specific injury prevention exercise program had a significant positive effect on the performance of recreational judo athletes, with a particular focus on those employing the ippon technique.

Detailed Description

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Judo-Specific Injury Prevention Exercise Program

18 participants will be in the experimental group, following a judo-specific injury prevention exercise protocol for six weeks (three sessions per week).

Baseline and post-intervention measurements will evaluate judo-specific skills, agility, balance, and overall performance.

The intervention will include:

Warm-up exercises tailored for injury prevention Strength and conditioning exercises specific to judo movements Drills focusing on balance, agility, and coordination Gradually progressive intensity over six weeks

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Judo-Specific Injury Prevention Exercise Program

Intervention Type OTHER

The intervention includes a structured program designed specifically for judo athletes to prevent injuries and enhance performance. The program consists of warm-up exercises, strength and conditioning drills, balance improvement exercises, agility training, and sport-specific movements. It is delivered over six weeks, with participants completing three sessions per week. Each session is progressively tailored to improve overall motor skills, prevent overuse injuries, and enhance judo-specific abilities.

Regular Judo Training

18 participants will be in the control group, continuing their regular judo training sessions without any additional intervention.

The same performance metrics will be measured at baseline and post-intervention.

The control group will continue their regular training sessions as guided by their judo coaches, with no alterations.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Recreational judo athletes aged 18 to 35 years.
* Participants with at least one year of regular participation in recreational judo Athletes with no existing major musculoskeletal injuries or chronic health conditions that would limit their ability to participate in the prescribed exercise program.
* Participants willing to provide informed consent and commit to the duration of the study, including regular attendance at training sessions and data collection activities.
* Athletes engaging in judo training at least twice a week.

Exclusion Criteria

* Athletes below 18 or above 35 years of age.
* Novice judo practitioners with less than one year of regular training.
* Individuals with a history of significant musculoskeletal injuries in the past six months or chronic conditions affecting their ability to participate fully.
* Participants unwilling or unable to provide informed consent or commit to the study requirements.
* Athletes participating in judo training less than twice a week, as they may not represent a group with sufficient exposure to the injury prevention program.
* Professional or highly competitive judo athletes, as their training regimens and performance levels may differ significantly from recreational athletes.
