Abstract
Speed and explosive Power are key elements in the physical fitness preparation of football players training to generate high-level performance. To determine the application of Self-myofascial release (SMFR) before complex training (CT) on the development of Speed and Explosive power of footballers, Forty-five male (EX-1) SMFR+PAP=15, (EX-2) PAP=15, and CON group=15, The EX-1 and EX-2 underwent a 12-week training program, The EX-1 received foam rolling, dynamic stretching and complex training while EX-2 dynamic stretching and complex training, and the CON group followed regular exercise practices. The findings show the importance of MFR as a tool for optimal warm-up strategies during sports conditioning and before intensive activities and the combined intervention of Pre-exercise MFR before Complex training improves the performance of football players. Compared to the CON group the EX-1 and EX-2 groups showed significant improvements in both speed and Explosive power and the MFR+PAP group displayed the most significant improvement. Further, long-term investigations recommend exploring the durability and long-term benefits of SMFR and PAP interventions in different sports fields and elements that result in optimal performance.
