Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses-recently gaining popularity in sports-on cognitive function, physical performance, and postural stability, which are among the key skills in athletic performance.

The originality of the study lies in being the first to examine the effects of stroboscopic glasses-based exercises on basketball players.

Hypotheses of the study:

H1: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' cognitive functions.

H2: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' physical performance.

H3: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' static and dynamic postural stability.

Conditions

  • Sports Physical Therapy
  • Stroboscopic Visual Training
  • Cognitive Function
  • Physical Performance
  • Postural Stability

Control group

Active Comparator: Control group The exercise program to be implemented within the scope of the study is the SHRed (Sports Injury Prevention for the Lower Extremity, focusing on musculoskeletal and head-related injuries) neuromuscular training program. The program will be administered over six weeks, with two sessions per week. The control group will perform the exercises under normal visual conditions. The exercise program to be implemented within the scope of the study is the SHRed (Sports Injury Prevention for the Lower Extremity, focusing on musculoskeletal and head-related injuries) neuromuscular training program. The program will be administered over six weeks, with two sessions per week. Previous research has shown that the SHRed injury prevention neuromuscular training program reduces ankle and knee injuries in youth basketball players by 36% \[35\]. The program consists of balance, agility, strength, and aerobic exercises.
