Classic massage and foam roller massage are frequently used techniques by athletes, for warming up before training or competition, and also for recovery. Those two massage techniques have different applications; classic massage is characterized by passive application, while foam roller massage is performed actively. The aim of this paper is to establish the differences in the acute effects of classic massage and foam roller massage on flexibility of leg muscles and jumping ability in physically active individuals. On a sample of 9 physically active female participants, an initial test of jumping and flexibility of the legs was performed, then a massage (classic or foam roller massage) and immediately after the final testing of jumping and flexibility of the legs. In the first visit, the effect of one massage was tested, and in the second visit, the remaining form of massage application was tested. The flexibility of the muscles of the back of the legs was checked with trunk flexion with spread legs and stand and reach test. Jumping ability was tested with the countermovement jump and squat jump. Results indicate that both massage techniques, regardless of the different application, lead to improved flexibility. As for jumping ability, in the monitored variables, a better effect of massage with a foam roller compared to classic massage was observed only in one indicator of SJ. In future research, it is necessary to further investigate the mechanisms of adaptation of the locomotor system to different types of massage, both in the form of changes in flexibility and jumping ability, and in the form of changes in specific tasks related to a particular sport.
