Key result
Basketball fatigue protocol associated with decreased peak torque in dominant quadriceps and hamstrings.
Why the study?
Does a basketball-specific fatigue protocol decrease muscular and neuromuscular functions in U17 and U19 male basketball players?
Observational (n=29)
No
Does a basketball-specific fatigue protocol decrease muscular and neuromuscular functions in U17 and U19 male basketball players?
A basketball-specific fatigue protocol acutely decreases knee flexor and extensor peak torque in adolescent male players, though it does not significantly alter hamstring-to-quadriceps ratios.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Fatigue acutely impairs lower-limb torque in young players; leaves open whether this increases injury risk.

Lehnert et al. (2017) conducted an observational in Healthy male basketball players (n=29). Basketball-specific fatigue protocol (BUP28) vs. Pre-protocol baseline was evaluated on Peak torque of knee joint flexors and extensors. The basketball-specific fatigue protocol significantly decreased peak torque in dominant lower limb quadriceps in concentric action and hamstrings in eccentric action at 60°/s in both U17 and U19 male basketball players.
