To avoid a misinterpretation of the results, positive results indicate a better performance in favor of the PAP warm-up protocol, while negative results show a better performance in favor of the control warm-up protocol. CL, confidence limits; ES, effect size; PAP, post-activation potentiation; H3Jd and H3Jnd, triple hop test with dominant and non-dominant leg, respectively; SJ, squat jump; CMJ, countermovement jump; COD, change of direction ability test; RSCODb and RSCODt, repeated sprint with change of direction best and total times, respectively; S-30, linear 30-m sprint test. WU, Control warm-up protocol; 100%-1RM, 80%-1RM, and 60%-1RM, post-activation potentiation warm-up protocols at 60, 80, and 100% of one repetition maximum in half-squat.
