Summary

Preventive and rehabilitation programs include plyometric exercises to promote agility, power, and muscle activation pattern during jumping. These exercises also are known to cause a high mechanical load that increases the risk of a musculoskeletal injury. The knowledge regarding the musculoskeletal damage result from this configuration of exercise can help to elaborate safer and effective training and rehabilitation programs. In this study, the investigators will conduct a clinical trial to determine the acute effect of plyometric exercises on damage caused on different portions of quadriceps and biceps femoral's muscles and tendons of quadriceps, and biceps femoral, and its effects on mechanical properties.
