Twenty-two professional basketball players, divided into two randomized groups, carried out a specific warm-up for three months with a foam roller. Three measurements were made, pre-intervention, post-intervention at 12 weeks and a four-week follow-up. In these measurements reference data were taken for jumping, ankle dorsiflexion and balance. During this protocol, they performed three series of sixty seconds of application with thirty seconds of rest between series, three days a week and applied to the calf muscles, hamstrings, quadriceps, gluteus and TFL.
