Big Toe Strength Training on Athletic Performance Parameter

impact of a 4-week running training program on physical performance variables in a control group comprising 15 participants. The control group exclusively underwent running training, and measurements were taken for variables such as the strength of the big toe of both right and left feet using a hip and toe dynamometer (measured in kilograms). Additionally, assessments included vertical jump height and horizontal jump distance (both measured in centimeters), balance using the Y-balance test, and agility via the T-test. All measurements were conducted with standardized equipment, both before and after the training period. se physical performance indicators.

impact of a 4-week intervention involving toe-strengthening exercises and concurrent running training on 15 participants. Pre-assessment measurements included big toe strength, vertical and horizontal jump heights, Y-balance for balance, and T-tests for agility. Following pre-assessment, participants followed a structured toe-strengthening protocol, performing 15 repetitions in three sets twice a day for three weeks. Post-intervention measurements, using the same units and instruments, aim to reveal the effects of the intervention on specified physical variables. This research provides insights into the potential benefits of combining toe-strengthening exercises with running training for enhanced physical performance.
