Abstract: Introduction: Fencing is a dynamic and intense combat sport. The sport demands a high level of agility, requiring athletes to execute rapid accelerations, decelerations, sudden direction changes, lunges, jumps, and slides. As such, fencing places considerable strain on the lower body, particularly the hamstrings and quadriceps, which are the muscles most susceptible to injury. These injuries typically require extensive rehabilitation, as the muscles have a strong tendency to shorten, increasing the likelihood of recurrence. The nature of fencing, with its explosive movements and frequent high-impact maneuvers, further contributes to the risk of muscle strain. Athletes must adopt preventative strategies and employ appropriate recovery protocols to reduce the incidence of these injuries and maintain optimal performance. Methodology- The participants underwent a 5-day treatment regimen over the course of 3 weeks targeting the hamstring and quadriceps muscle groups to improve both strength and flexibility. The strength and flexibility of these muscles were assessed using the sit-and-reach test and a quadriceps strength test. Pre-treatment and post-treatment measurements were taken and compared to determine the outcomes. Result: The increase in Hamstring length and Quadriceps strength following a 5-Day MET treatment for 3weeks protocol proved to be statistically significant when compared to presession (Hamstring: 59.42, Quadriceps: 28.51) and post-session (Hamstring: 63.31, Quadriceps: 40.1) values. Conclusion: The present study concluded that Muscle Energy Technique improves Hamstring flexibility and Quadriceps strength of Fencers and hence can help in injury prevention and enhance their performance.
Keywords: Muscle Energy Technique, Fencers, sit and reach test, Quadriceps strength and Hamstring flexibility.
