“…Findings also revealed that practitioners often considered athletes' training age before implementing priming sessions in the training plan. These results, whilst considering the reported variation in performance responses within studies, [5][6][7]10,11,15,22,24,28,29 may support research designs that assess changes in priming measures on an individual basis. This approach may provide important insight into applying priming exercise whilst considering contextual factors and thus will more closely reflect the type of data of interest to practitioners.…”

“…4 Although priming exercise has been shown to improve physical and perceptual responses, a number of studies have also found no change or significant decreases in these measures. [5][6][7]12,[14][15][16][22][23][24] Several factors may explain the lack of agreement in the literature. These include the training parameters used during a priming session, the duration separating the priming stimulus and subsequent performance, differences between exercise stimuli and testing measures researchers have utilised to assess performance and individual characteristics.…”

“…1,4 However, recent findings suggest that performance may be improved within 1–48 hours following these sessions providing the amount of work completed is relatively low. 5–12 Termed ‘priming exercise’, studies have revealed improvements in different forms of strength expression (e.g. heavy maximal 13–15 and fast 5–7,9–12,16 dynamic strength) and maximal running ability 13,17,18 within this time frame following low-volume exercise stimuli.…”

The term ‘priming exercise’ has recently been introduced to describe exercise stimuli prescribed to enhance performance within 1–48 hours of that stimulus. Despite evidence of these activities being utilised in competitive settings, the reasoning underpinning the application of priming exercise is not yet clear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore practitioners’ perceptions about using priming exercise as a pre-competition strategy to improve performance. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 28 practitioners involved in prescribing training programs to elite Australian athletes. Reflexive thematic analysis revealed six organising themes (i.e. ‘limited and inapplicable research findings’, ‘consideration of athletes’ training age’, risk-return of priming session outcomes’, ‘logistical concerns’, ‘buy-in’ and ‘priming exercise prescription’) later grouped into a global theme, representing the ‘challenges of applying priming exercise’. The findings highlight contextual factors influencing practitioners’ use of priming exercise and, based on these considerations, draw attention to the apparent uncertainty about whether these stimuli can be prescribed effectively to improve competition performance in sports. In addition to gaining insight into applied priming strategies, the present findings may be used to inform externally valid and relevant study designs that subsequently guide practice.

“…Two randomized conditions were implemented throughout the investigation: 1) Control, where participants sat quietly for the same duration (~15 minutes) as the priming exercise session; and 2) Priming, where participants carried out a low-volume high-load resistance exercise in the morning (08:00-10:00 a.m.. The priming exercise consisted of two sets with the 80 % 1RM in the parallel squat, with a velocity loss of ~20 % regarding the fastest repetition in each set [7,15]. This velocity loss was selected to limit metabolic and neuromuscular fatigue [16] due to reductions in the level of effort of each set [17].…”

This study aimed to identify the effects of same day resistance priming exercise on countermovement jump parameters and subjective readiness, and to identify whether baseline strength level influenced these outcomes. Fourteen participants performed two separate conditions (Priming [2 sets high-load parallel squats with a 20% velocity loss cut-off] and Control) in a randomized, counterbalanced crossover design. Countermovement jump was assessed at pre, post and 6h while readiness was assessed at pre and at 6h only. All countermovement jump force-time metrics were similar between conditions (p>0.05), but different individual responses were noted 6h after priming. Jump height was increased for 4/14, decreased for another 4/14 and maintained for 6/14 participants at 6h. Higher perceived physical performance capability (p<0.001) and activation balance (p=0.005) were observed after priming only. Positive relationships were observed between strength and the percentage change in jump height (r=0.47-0.50; p=0.033-0.042), concentric peak velocity (r=0.48-0.51; p=0.030-0.041) and impulse (r=0.47; p=0.030-0.045) at post and 6h after priming exercise. These findings suggest that velocity-based high-load low-volume priming exercise has potential to positively impact jump performance and subjective readiness later that day in certain individuals. Participant absolute strength level may influence this response but should be confirmed in subsequent studies.

“…This type of vertical jump-based testing is not only simple and time-efficient but has also proven to be sensitive to fatigue induced by exercise on the neuromuscular system in various sports [10,11]. For instance, the CMJ is capable of reflecting changes following both chronic [12] and acute training interventions [13][14][15]. Similarly, both the CMJ and the drop jump (DJ) have demonstrated being the two vertical jump tests that exhibit prolonged performance decrements post-exercise, suggesting an extended sensitivity compared to other tests such as the squat jump (SJ) or 20 m sprint times [16].…”

Understanding the reliability of jump testing is essential to determine the neuromuscular progress of athletes and make informed decisions. This study aimed to assess the reliability of several countermovement jump (CMJ) and drop jump (DJ) test metrics in female volleyball players. Sixteen (n = 16) semi-professional female volleyball players participated in this test-retest study. Intrasession and intersession reliability of CMJ and DJ metrics were evaluated using a randomized cross-over design. A dual force platform was used to collect CMJ and DJ data, and several dependent variables were calculated using forward dynamics. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), coefficients of variation (CV), and minimum difference (MD) were calculated to assess intra- and interday reliability. During the same testing, the third attempt consistently yielded the highest values for both tests in jump height but presented excellent reliability (CMJ: ICC [95%CI] = 0.97 [0.93–0.99]; CV [95%CI] = 4.1% [1.2–7.0]; MD95 = 3.5 cm; MD90 = 2.9 cm; DJ: ICC [95%CI] = 0.91 [0.77–0.97]; CV [95%CI] = 6.7% [1.9–11.5]; MD95 = 6.0 cm; MD90 = 5.0 cm). CMJ height exhibited excellent reliability between sessions (ICC [95%CI] = 0.93 [0.81–0.97]; CV [95%CI] = 3.8% [1.1–6.4]; MD95 = 3.5 cm; MD90 = 3.0 cm), whereas DJ height demonstrated slightly lower but still acceptable intersession reliability (ICC [95%CI] = 0.81 [0.55–0.93]; CV [95%CI] = 6.1% [1.7–10.4]; MD95 = 5.2 cm; MD90 = 4.4 cm). Intersession reliability for CMJ kinetics and kinematics was excellent for 13 of the 24 metrics assessed. For DJ, only concentric (ICC [95%CI] = 0.91 [0.76–0.97]; CV [95%CI] = 3.0% [0.9–5.2]; MD95 = 15 Ns; MD90 = 12.6 Ns) and eccentric impulses (ICC [95%CI] = 0.99 [0.96–0.99]; CV [95%CI] = 1.7% [0.5–2.9]; MD95 = 9.2 Ns; MD90 = 7.7 Ns) demonstrated excellent intersession reliability. Most CMJ variables showed excellent reliability within sessions, while DJ had lower reliability in most metrics. These findings provide valuable information to physical trainers to select the metrics to assess athletes’ performance as well as to identify a minimum cut-off value that serves as a reference for each of the metrics reported in both tests.
