Abstract

Abstract
Purpose: Recently, effect of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in sports as an ergogenic aid is taken into consideration. IPC may have positive effects on the athletic performance of individuals, which leads to increased capacity in exercise. So, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of IPC on anaerobic performance of female student›s athletes.
Methods: For this purpose, in a randomized crossover design, sixteen females with a mean age of 0.60±20.78 years and weight 10.03±55.94 kg assigned into two conditions: Experiment (preconditioning included four set of five-minute occlusion-reperfusion, with five minutes reperfusion, then performing two Wingate tests) and Control (sham preconditioning included four set of five-minutes closing cuff without pressure, then performing two Wingate tests). The rest period between two Wingate tests was two minutes. Borg scale were measured immediately after the last stage of ischemia and Wingate test. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance and LSD test significance level was P <0.05.
Results: The results showed that the peak power increased in experimental condition compared to the control, but this increase was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Also, there was no significant difference in average power, mean power and heart rate between control and experimental condition (P>0.05). IPC lead to significant decrease in the perceived exertion in experimental condition (p˂0.05).
Conclusion: Results showed that the IPC has no effect on power output in female student›s athletes. It seems, IPC before power tasks in female student›s athletes, must be with more intensity and time and in big organs with a larger muscle size to have more effects.
