Anthropometric, Strength, and Power Determinants of Throwing Performance in Collegiate Throwers.
… predict throwing performance. Seventeen male D-I throwers (age = 19.1 ± 1.2 y; body mass = 115.1 ± 15.3 kg; height = 1.85 ± 0.06 m) were assessed for maximum strength and power. A five variable linear regression (r = 0.94, r<sup>2</sup> = 0.88, F(5,11) = 15.89, p < 0.001, SEE = 0.68) explained 88% …
