Protocol summary

Study aim
The effect of jump-landing and strength training on performance, dynamic balance, and selected kinetic and kinematic factors of taekwondo athletes (Poomsae) with dynamic knee valgus
Design
A randomized, single-blind, parallel clinical trial study, 60 people were divided into two intervention groups and a control group, through web-based randomization.
Settings and conduct
After physician examination and review of inclusion/exclusion criteria, the patient's personal information was recorded and the consent form was signed. Participants were equally divided into three groups: jumping-landing exercises with strength exercises, without strength exercises, and a control group. This single-blinded study (outcome assessors blinded to interventions and grouping) was conducted at the Movement Analysis Laboratory, Faculty of Physical Education, Kharazmi University. Exercises were performed for 6 weeks, three sessions per week.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization will be done by simple randomization individually and the sequence of random allocation will be determined using a computer program with the help of a web-based program (randomizer.org), by a member of the research team not involved in the selection of samples from sealed opaque envelopes with a random sequence will be used to conceal allocation. They will be assigned to two intervention groups and a control group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
In this study, the outcome assessor is blinded, meaning that he or she is unaware of the allocation of subjects to groups and which treatment intervention each group of subjects receives. This way, they do not make errors in their judgments in favor of a particular treatment intervention during the assessment before and after the protocol period.
