Effect of Different Duration of Foam Rolling on Hamstring Flexibility of Sedentary College Students
This study aimed to explore the effect of foam rolling on hamstring flexibility among sedentary college students by analyzing changes in hamstring flexibility after foam rolling for different durations.Thirteen sedentary college students were selected for the experiment,underwent foam rolling at different time and performed sit-and-reach tests immediately,after 5 minutes,and after 10 minutes.Paired-samples T-tests were used to examine the parameters of hamstring flexibility before and after the rolling and between different time durations.The research results are as follows:Immediately after intervention,hamstring flexibility after rolling for(10 s,30 s,60 s)after intervention has improved compared to pre-intervention,and the difference was statistically significant;Five minutes after the intervention,hamstring flexibility also significantly improved from pre-intervention for all rolling durations(10 s,30 s,60 s),and the difference was statistically significant.However,the difference between groups with different rolling durations was not statistically significant;Ten minutes after the intervention,hamstring flexibility continued to show significant improvements from pre-intervention for all rolling durations(10 s,30 s,60 s),and again,and the difference was statistically significant.There was no statistically significant difference between groups with different rolling durations.In conclusion,Foam rolling for 10 s,30 s,and 60 s durations can effectively improve the flexibility of hamstring muscles,and the effect is similar.Additionally,the improvements in hamstring flexibility induced by foam rolling persisted for a period of time.
