TRX Training Intensity in Male Adolescent Basketball Players
Sponsor: Uludag University
Summary
This randomized interventional study aims to compare the effects of low-, moderate-, and high-intensity TRX suspension training on physical performance in male adolescent basketball players. Forty-two athletes aged 15 to 17 years are assigned to one of three TRX training intensity groups and complete an 8-week supervised training program in addition to their regular basketball practice. Outcomes are assessed before and after the intervention and include agility, dual-task agility, balance, upper-extremity muscular endurance, and rating of perceived exertion (RPE). The study seeks to determine whether different TRX training intensities produce distinct adaptations in these performance outcomes and to provide evidence for optimizing suspension-training prescription in youth basketball players.

Interventions
TRX Suspension Training
Participants completed an 8-week supervised TRX suspension training program performed three times per week in addition to their regular basketball training. All groups completed the same exercises, session frequency, session duration, training volume, and supervision. The intervention included TRX Side Bend, Knee Pull, T-Jump, Squat Jump, Mountain Climber, Superman, Sumo Squat Jump, Single-Leg Squat, Side Squat, and Hamstring Curl. The only difference between groups was the prescribed internal training intensity based on heart rate reserve (HRR): 45-60% (LI-TRX), 65-75% (MI-TRX), or 80-95% (HI-TRX).
