The normality of data distribution was examined and confirmed using the Shapiro–Wilk test. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures was conducted to explore the differences in performance outcomes (jump height, RFD, force, power, 1RM squat, 1RM bench press, number of repetitions in the squat and bench press) and subjective responses (pain perception) between the four conditions. In the case of a significant main effect from the ANOVA, the Sidak post hoc test was used to identify where the difference occurred (i.e., between which pairs). If the assumption of sphericity was violated, the Greenhouse–Geisser adjustment was used. All performance results are presented as mean ± standard deviations. Effect size (
