Introduction: Too often neglected, the bone tissue is capable of deforming. The deformation has a key role in the cushioning and dissipation of stress, a function that is hindered in the event of fascial tension, which will consequently fall on other structures used for the same purpose (Discs, menisci, cartilage, …). Structures that, in the event of increased mechanical stress, could undergo degeneration, inflammation, and injury. Materials and Method: Randomized double-blind selection of 38 people, 18 in the treatment group and 20 in the control group, men and women, aged between 16 and 35, who have been part, for at least one year, of a sports club, with a large space dedicated to jumping in its training program, have been divided into two groups: the treatment group, which was treated to increase the performance of the jump and the control group subjected to mild manual pressures, without any intention. Results: The treatment group had an increase in Standing Long Jump (SLJ) for 3.67% (p Conclusions: This study has shown that an osteopathic manipulative treatment, aimed at increasing jumping performance, can increase the performance of the SLJ.展开更多

In total, 20 male collegiate baseball players participated in this study and were divided into a HT training group （HTT） and a control group （CON）. Participants in the HTT group added HTT movements to a regular baseball training regimen （3 times per week for 8 weeks）, whereas participants in the CON group only performed the regular baseball training regimen. Before and after the training sessions, strength performance was assessed via tests of squat strength and 3 repetition maximum （3RM） HT strength; power performance was assessed via vertical jump height, standing long jump distance, and 30-m sprint time. The results indicated significant improvement in squat strength （31% ± 15%） and 3RM HT strength （36% ± 16%） （P 〈 0.05）, but not in vertical jump height, standing long jump distance, and 30-m sprint time. Furthermore, the improvement in squat strength highly correlated with 3RM HT strength （r = 0.83, P 〈 0.05）, In conclusion, HTT plays a role in developing squat strength but does not appear to improve power performance.展开更多
