Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of post-activation potentiation (PAP) and carbohydrate mouthwash (CHO) on the speed performance of female futsal players.
Methods: This study employed a pre-test-post-test design with a control group, conducted in a single session. Twenty eligible female futsal players (mean age: 21.7 ± 1.2 years, height: 1.60 ± 0.05 m, weight: 59.32 ± 1.35 kg, BMI: 23.17 ± 0.12 kg/m²) were randomly assigned to four groups: carbohydrate mouthwash (CHO), PAP + CHO, PAP + placebo (PAP + PL), and placebo (PL). Speed performance variables (best record, average of six records, and total of six records) were measured in two stages: pre-test and post-test.
Results: Significant improvements in the best record, average of six records, and total of six records were observed in the CHO, PAP+PL, and PAP+CHO groups compared to the pre-test results. The PAP+CHO group showed a significant improvement in all speed performance variables compared to the PL, CHO, and PAP+PL groups in the post-test. Significant improvements in speed performance variables were also observed in the CHO and PAP+PL groups compared to the PL group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that both post-activation potentiation and carbohydrate mouth rinsing improve the speed performance of female futsal players. Moreover, the combination of PAP and CHO mouth rinsing demonstrated a synergistic effect on enhancing speed performance.
