The purpose of this research was to determine the effects of an absence of a warm-up, a warm-up, and a warm-up Recovery techniques on repeated performances of three all-out trials in the 300m dash. the subjects were 15male college boys who run a total of nine 300 dashes consisting of three trials of each treatment with a 20 minutes rest period between trials on three different testing days
Approximately two months later the same pattern of nine 300m dashes was
administered a second time.
The result of this study shed some new Light on the use of warm-up between
repeated performances of events similar to the 300m dash.
There is no doubt that the psychological factor plays an important role in affecting the physical subjects Consciously or subconsciously did notgo allout without the warm-up or the warm-up with recovery techniques, because they psychologically felt their performance would be adversely affected without them. of course, in no study can the psychological factor be Completely controlled.
However, in this study all 15 subjects hadtwo practice administrations in running two heats of all-out 300m dashes during the conditioning program, before the testing started.
The subjects knew how it felt to run this distance all-out and were instructed before the conditioning program that three were no physiological advantage to any one method.
It is possible that in this study whatever physiological factors that operated in the warm-up, and warm-up and recovery techniques had a prime in fluence on attaining significant superior performances.
One can only speculate what these warm-up may be beneficial are the increase in
muscle temperature, the increased rate of blood volume Circulation, and the increase in the oxygen exchange system.
The reasons the recovery techniques may have provided some performance advantage are the heart and three omplete removal of all body weight from the Legs during the 15 min rest period.
This study indicated performance in repeated trials of the 300m dash does not
deteriorate as fast if subject tselevated their Legs followedby a short warm-up than if they just sat for the rest period or sat and warm-up for the rest period.
① statistically significant differences at the .05 le uel were found between the overall means of the two administrations, the methods, and trials, a significant interaction effect was also found between method and trials.
② There are significant simple effects at the .01 level of significance between trials and methods 1, and 2 and between methods attrial3.
③ Tests for simple effects coupled with Tukey's HSD test revealed that by the fime trial3 Comes about, the warm-up with recovery techniques demonstrated significant superiority of performance over no warm-up
④ statistically significant diffenences at the .05 Level were found between the three methods, and among the means between the three trials a significant interaction among methods and trials was also found.
