Acute effects of the power snatch on vertical jump performance
… exercise at specific intensities on vertical jump performance. 10 weightlifters attended two sessions: a power snatch (PS) and control (CON) condition. Each session was separated with at least 48 hours in between. This study used a 1-group experimental design. During the PS condition, …

Acute effect on vertical jump performance after two types of heavy squat exercises
The purpose of this study was to compare vertical jump heights achieved before and after performing the half squat, or the quarter squat exercise. 10 male subjects experienced with the squat exercise performed 4 warm-up squat sets followed by 1 repetition with the weight of 90% of 1 RM half squat …

Whole-Body Vibration and Its Effects on Electromechanical Delay and Vertical Jump Performance
… on electromechanical delay and vertical jump performance. Twenty college aged subjects participated in 10 intervals of whole-body vibration (WBV) at a frequency of 26 Hz and amplitude of 5 mm. Each interval consisted of 60 s of WBV in a half-squat followed by 60 s of rest. After 5 …

The effect of wearing strength shoes during plyometric training on vertical jump performance
… (Strength Footwear, Inc.) increased vertical jump performance, decreased elapsed time in the 40 yard dash and increased calf circumference. Thirty-one male and female college-aged students served as subjects. Twenty-two subjects, enrolled in a college physical fitness class, were randomly …

The effects of static stretching sets in warm-up on maximum vertical jump performance
… sets during the warm-up changes maximum vertical jump (MVJ) performance. Twenty-five healthy male and female subjects between the ages of 18--40 volunteered to be in the study. The data was statistically treated using a two (pre-test, post-test) by three (NS, 1SS, and 3SS) ANOVA with repeated …

Dynamic Strength Index and Countermovement Jump Performance in Female and Male Collegiate Basketball Athletes Across a Competitive Season
… levels of strength and power for actions such as jumping, sprinting, and changing direction. Monitoring these physical attributes across a competitive season can help inform training strategies. The countermovement jump (CMJ) and isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) are widely used to assess power and …

Characterizing aerobic and anaerobic performance in alpine skiing
… data analysis was to characterize dryland performance of trained adolescent alpine skiers from the end of season to pre-season, and to assess the longitudinal changes in dryland jump performance over a 26-month period. Skiers between the ages of 15 and 18 volunteered for this study (n = 8; …

Monitoring neuromuscular fatigue in high performance athletes
… frequency of training required for competitive performances at the elite level has increased concurrently. With this amplification in training load comes an increased need to closely monitor the associated fatigue responses, since maximising the adaptive response to training is also reliant on …

Jump Strategy Changes in Collegiate Women Soccer Players
<p>Countermovement jumps (CMJ) are often utilized to monitor athletes because of their sensitivity to neuromuscular fatigue, which can be seen through assessing jump strategies. The current literature has reported conflicting views on how jump performance is impacted over acute and longitudinal …

Recovery and restoration of performance in elite level Rugby Union
… of fatigue needs to be quantified via specific performance testing, to better advise practitioners regarding likely position-specific time-course of recovery. Results from this thesis support the notion that countermovement jump (CMJ) provides sensitive and reliable data for jump performance …

Recovering elastic energy in a single-legged hopping robot
… the relationship between Ek /Ein, and jump performance. Select runs of the simulation show a positive relationship between Ek/Ein and the jump height. Qualitative observation of the physical model shows that compliant parts are able to aid in performing a successful jump.

A Low-Cost Computer Vision Approach for Objectively Evaluating Triple Jump Technique: Proof of Concept
The triple jump is a track and field event comprising an approach run followed by three phases – hop, step, and jump – culminating in a sand pit landing. Typically, triple jump technique is evaluated subjectively by coaches, with quantitative assessments often relying on high-cost multi-camera …
