Abstract
CONTEXT
Foam rolling (FR) increases joint range of motion (RoM), but the optimal training parameters are unknown.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of FR velocity on RoM and tissue stiffness.
DESIGN
Randomized, controlled crossover trial.
SETTING
University.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 17 healthy, physically active adults (10 females; 25 [2] y).
INTERVENTIONS
(1) Four 45-second high-velocity FR of the anterior thigh (FAST-FR), (2) four 45-second slow-velocity FR of the anterior thigh (SLOW-FR), and (3) inactive control.
OUTCOME MEASURES
Maximal knee-flexion RoM (ultrasonic movement analysis) and anterior thigh tissue stiffness (semielectronic tissue compliance meter) assessed pre, immediately post (T0), as well as 5 (T5) and 10 (T10) minutes postintervention. Statistical analysis included Friedman tests with adjusted post hoc comparisons (Wilcoxon tests).
RESULTS
According to omnibus testing, RoM remained unchanged in all 3 conditions and at all time points (P > .05), while differences were found for tissue stiffness (P < .05). Post hoc tests revealed significant decreases following FAST-FR (T5: -17%, T10: -24%; P < .05) and SLOW-FR (T10: -15%; P < .05). The observed stiffness changes were significant in comparison with control (P < .01), but no difference was found between the 2 FR conditions (P > .05).
CONCLUSIONS
FR of the anterior thigh decreases myofascial stiffness regardless of velocity. The lack of effects on RoM contrasts findings of recent literature and warrants further investigation.
