Fatigue protocol

During the fatigue protocol, participants will sprint forward 5 m, cut at a 90° angle, sprint forward another 5 m, and backpedal 5 m. This activity will be repeated 4 times before participants will complete a series of hurdle activities. First, they will perform 2-legged jumps over 5 hurdles that are 30 cm high, turn, and repeat the jumps. Second, they will perform side-stepping exercises over the 5 hurdles. Third, they will complete four 5-m lateral shuffles.
