The effects of a 10-week combined strength and endurance training intervention followed by cold water immersion or active recovery

2017

Combined strength and endurance training has been noted to produce significant improvements in strength and endurance performances of men. However, there seems to be moderate inhibitory effect regarding strength adaptations, especially considering power production. The effects of training have been well documented over the years yet very little has been investigated about recovery, even though athletes spend more of their time recovering than they do training. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of a 10-week combined strength and endurance training period on muscular performance and 3km time-trial in males with each training session followed by cold water immersion (CWI) or …

Vesiupotusmenetelmien vaikutus fyysisestä kuormituksesta palautumiseen miehillä

2017

Johdanto. Palautuminen on tärkeää erityisesti urheilijoiden harjoittelun ja kilpailujen yhteydessä. Sitä tapahtuu harjoituksen tai kilpailun aikana, välittömästi harjoituksen tai kilpailun jälkeen ja pitkäkestoisena harjoitusten ja kilpailujen välillä. Erilaisia palautumismenetelmiä on lukuisia ja niistä tärkeimpiä ovat aktiiviset menetelmät kuten kevyt aerobinen kuormitus sekä liikkuvuusharjoitukset. Passiivisia menetelmiä ovat uni, ravinto (nesteytys), hieronta, fysioterapia, painemenetelmät, lämpömenetelmät ja kylmäkäsittely. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus oli selvittää aktiivisen palautumisen jälkeen suoritettujen eri vesiupotusmenetelmien sekä pelkän aktiivisen palautumisen vaikutusta fyy…

Effect of water immersion on post-rotatory and caloric nystagmus.

1991

Caloric nystagmus and post-rotatory nystagmus were recorded with and without head-out water immersion. As water immersion reduces body weight by about 90% owing to buoyancy, it decreases somatosensory inputs. Thus water immersion can be used to simulate a weightless environment. Caloric nystagmus was enhanced significantly by water immersion; however, post-rotatory nystagmus was not. These findings demonstrate that caloric nystagmus is easily affected by water immersion which decreases somatosensory inputs, but that post-rotatory nystagmus is not.

The Effect of 16-Minute Thermal Stress and 2-Minute Cold Water Immersion on the Physiological Parameters of Young Sedentary Men

2020

This study aimed to determine the effect of 16 minutes of thermal stress followed by 2 minutes of cold water immersion on the physiological parameters of fifty-five sedentary men (mean age 20.15±1.30 years), who were exposed to 16 minutes of sauna (temperature: 90-91℃; relative humidity: 14-16%) followed by 2 minutes of cold water immersion (12℃). The participants' somatic characteristics were determined before entering the sauna, and their body mass and blood pressure were measured before and after sauna treatment. Physiological parameters were monitored during the 16-minute sauna session and the 2-minute cold water immersion (CRIO) or shower. The subjects perspired 0.21-0.27 litres during…

Water immersion methods do not alter muscle damage and inflammation biomarkers after high-intensity sprinting and jumping exercise

2020

Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of three water immersion interventions performed after active recovery compared to active recovery only on the resolution of inflammation and markers of muscle damage post-exercise. Methods Nine physically active men (n = 9; age 20‒35 years) performed an intensive loading protocol, including maximal jumps and sprinting on four occasions. After each trial, one of three recovery interventions (10 min duration) was used in a random order: cold-water immersion (CWI, 10 °C), thermoneutral water immersion (TWI, 24 °C), contrast water therapy (CWT, alternately 10 °C and 38 °C). All of these methods were performed after an active recovery (1…

The Effects of Cold Water Immersion on the Recovery of Drop Jump Performance and Mechanics : A Pilot Study in Under-20 Soccer Players

2020

Cold water immersion (CWI) is a popular method used for enhancing recovery from exercise. However, the efficacy of this approach is inconclusive and studies investigating variables contributing to overall performance are scarce. Additionally, few studies have investigated the recovery of stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) performance after a fatiguing SSC task. The SSC occurs naturally in human locomotion and induces a recovery pattern different from isolated muscle contractions (e.g., pure eccentric exercise). Therefore, the main aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a single CWI on jumping performance and mechanics after exhaustive SSC exercise. On a sledge apparatus, 10 male un…
