Abstract

Introduction: When starting a strength training session it is recommended to warm up as a way of preparing the main activity, with the objective of improving the physiological capacity of the individual for certain motor tasks. Objective: Therefore, the aim of the present study was to compare the effects of different warm-up methods on repetition performance of leg extension. Methods: The study included 10 men (26.9 ± 3.3 years), There were 6 visits, with interval of 72 hours. Was performed familiarization, tested and retest of ten-repetiton maximum, and the others for the execution of the experimental protocols. Conclusion: In relation to the total repetitions, the self myofascial release provided greater performance in comparison to the other protocols. Therefore, we can conclude that the self myofascial release can be an important tool for trainers in the maintenance of the performance of repetitions in the resistance training.
