Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) on the acute effects of physical fitness parameters in healthy male individuals. 24 volunteers are included in this study who have been divided into two groups such that one part is an IASTM and the other part is a control group. The physical activity levels of the individuals participating in the study were determined using the short form of the International Physical Activity Assessment Questionnaire (IPAQ). Individuals; their aerobic capacity is the Incremental Shuttle Walk Test (ISWT), muscle strength values are digital dynamometer, muscle flexibility values are sit-reach and quadriceps flexibility test, fatigue values are Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and Modified Borg Scale, agility assessment is T-Test, and balance assessment is evaluated with a stabilometer device.

Interventions

OTHER

INSTRUMENTAL-ASSISTED SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION TECHNIQUE

After all evaluations were made, IASTM was applied to the individuals in the intervention group for five minutes each, for a total of 20 minutes, on the quadriceps and hamstring muscles of both extremities, respectively.

OTHER

NO INTERVENTION

The control group waited for 30 minutes after the initial measurements and all measurements were repeated.
