Summary

Background: Active Warm up is one of the best and commonly used techniques in athletes that can induce special type of cardiovascular and metabolic changes that can bring the prominent change in running performance. Warm up prepares the body to withstand the high intensity exercises and improves the athletic performance and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injury.

Objective: The objectives of study are to compare two types of warm up resistance and plyometric warm up in recreational athletes to improve running performance.

Interventions

OTHER

plyometric warm up group

participants will be asked to do 10 minutes self-paced jog on motorized treadmill. During the plyometric intervention, subjects will perform the 2 \* 8 squat jumps, 2 \* 8 scissor jumps, and 2 \* 8 double leg bounds (2 sets of 8 repetitions) as a part of warm-up, and will have 60 s to recover between each set. Prior to the intervention, participants will be shown the technique to be used during jumping through use of three videos.

OTHER

resistance warm up

participants will be asked to do 10 minutes self-paced jog on motorized treadmill. After the jog participants will perform the 6\*10s strides with the 15% of the weight. Velocity of the strides will be controlled by the participants. Warmup will be followed by the 10minutes rest

OTHER

control warm up group

participants will be asked to do 10 minutes self-paced jog on a motorized treadmill. After the jog participants will perform the 6\*10s strides without the weight. Velocity of the strides will be controlled by the participants. Warmup will be followed by the 10minutes rest The total amount of time spended in each of the three warm-up protocols will be recorded. Participants will be instructed to wear the same pair of running shoes during the three tests.
