About this study
Ankle injuries are one of the most common sports injuries. Ankle injuries account for 10% to 30% of all injuries and 5% to 20% of all time-wasting injuries. Athletes involved in sports such as football, basketball, and volleyball are particularly at risk for such injuries, largely due to the running and jumping activities involved. Basketball has one of the highest injury rates of any team sport, with 10 injuries in a 1000 hour period.
Read the detailed description
The ankle is anatomically strong because of the structure of the bones and ligature that make it. Despite this, ankle injuries are the most common type of injury in sports injuries due to the stress and impact of athletes. It is estimated that 25% of the injuries occurred were ankle injuries. Approximately 85% of ankle injuries are lateral ankle sprain.
In basketball, ankle sprain is the most common type of injury. This is because repeated jumps, landings and sudden changes of direction in the nature of basketball. Due to degeneration in the bond structure as a result of ankle sprained, balance problems are also seen in athletes. Therefore, it is important that athletes evaluate the jump performance. In order to better understand the type and severity of injury of athletes, it is necessary to assess not only the physical characteristics but also the anxiety of physical activity and the relationship between this anxiety and injury, as fear of moving in athletes can develop as physical and psychological maturity is not developed enough during the pub period. The fear of moving can negatively affect the healing phases of the injured athlete, or even delay healing.
Plyometric training has been proven to improve muscle strength and power production. In addition, regular exercise can lead to significant improvements in postural control, jumping, sprinting, diversion speed and agility performance in young basketball players. Fear of re-injury is the fear of being vulnerable to painful re-injury even though physical recovery has been achieved. This situation also has an effect on psychological changes such as movements to protect the muscles, insecurity and focusing problems in the physiologically injured area. Studies show that fear of re-injury also influences muscle activation patterns, influencing muscle recovery, neuromuscular function, and rehabilitation outcomes. As a result, this delays the return to sports.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ExerciseOther
After evaluating the age groups and physical characteristics of the athletes under the titles of Warm-Up, Core/Balance/Reactive, Speed/Agility/Quickness, Resistance and Cool-Down, the exercise programs that differ for the athlete under these exercise types are listed with the NASM program and shared with the athletes. During the 8-week period between the 2 evaluations, it was applied 2 days a week on the team's fitness days.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
OptoJump
The optojump photoelectric system is a device that is easy to transport and relatively cost-effective. The device is a 96 LED system with a sensor and a transmitter capable of optical measurement. The system can be activated with 2 cameras and at least 2 Optojump bars. The data is recorded via a computer. The system creates a network and it has the ability to detect even 1/1000 seconds of interruption to this network. It can measure data such as time to fall, time to stay in the air, speed, acceleration, number of steps, step length, power, step time. In our study, the data obtained by making the athletes squat jump with Optojump were recorded.
Measured: 8 weeks
The Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale
LThis scale includes questions about fear of movement and is a frequently used scale in musculoskeletal injuries and is a question-answer scale consisting of 17 questions used in sports-related injuries over orthopedic injuries. The questions cover the variables of injury, re-injury, fear and avoidance of movement in the person's work or job-related movements. Likert scale consisting of 1, 2, 3 and 4 points (1: I strongly disagree, 4: I strongly agree) is used in the TSK. The person gets a total score between 17-68. A high score on the scale indicates a high level of kinesiophobia. It is recommended to use the total score in studies.
Measured: 8 weeks
Secondary outcomes (1)
Y Balance Test
Y Balance Test is a simple but reliable test used to evaluate dynamic balance. Y balance test; It is a dynamic test performed in a one-leg stance that requires strength, flexibility, and proprioception and was developed by Plisky et al. It features a central rectangular base plate 2.54 cm above the ground and 1.5 m long strips in each of the 3 directions. The athlete stands on the soleplate and reaches for each strip with his foot. The score is recorded as the point at which the indicator block was pushed closest to the stance leg.
Measured: 8 weeks
