5. Conclusions
In summary, the results of the present investigation indicate that the use of foam rolling and static stretching exercises may not be indicated when aiming to restore neuromuscular performance following a single bout of HIFT. However, the study shows that using the FR technique during the cooldown phase of a HIFT session may be useful for improving an individual´s perception of recovery, while using the SS may provoke a greater effective response. Therefore, considering the recovery from an acute HIFT session, neither of the proposed modalities seems more efficient than passive recovery as participants appeared to attain similar short-term recovery.
