Analysis of jumping/falling distance from a height
Forensic Science International, 2006The kinematic motion analysis of 50 jumps from a height of 5m demonstrated distinguishable maxima of jumping distances between passive and active jumps (1.0-3.4 and 3.7-7.1 m, respectively). The variation of several parameters concerning the 'take-off' mechanism showed less influence regarding the jumping distances.

The goal of this study was to assess (a) the eccentric rate of force development, the concentric force, and selected time variables on vertical performance during countermovement jump, (b) the existence of gender differences in these variables, and (c) the sport-specific differences.

Factors contributing to jump heights in two-foot running jumps with and without a basketball
Frontiers in Sports and Active LivingIntroductionTwo-foot running jumps (TFRJs) are used by basketball players during games and evaluations for maximum jump height with or without a ball. Prior research on TFRJs performed by volleyball players revealed whole-body kinematics and kinetics variables that contribute to jump height, though it is unknown whether these variables contribute to ...

Accuracy of a Vertical Jump Contact Mat for Determining Jump Height and Flight Time
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2015Several devices are available to measure vertical jump (VJ) height based on flight time, VJ reach height, or ground reaction forces. The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of a VJ mat for measuring flight time and VJ height compared with a VJ tester or a force plate.

The effect of assisted jumping on vertical jump height in high-performance volleyball players
Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2011Assisted jumping may be useful in training higher concentric movement speed in jumping, thereby potentially increasing the jumping abilities of athletes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of assisted jump training on counter-movement vertical jump (CMVJ) and spike jump (SPJ) ability in a group of elite male volleyball players.

Impact of morphological characteristics and jumping ability on block jump height
Physical education and sport through the centuriesThis study investigated the combined impact of morphological characteristics and jumping ability on block jump height in volleyball. A sample of 28 elite male volleyball players, age 16.43 ± 2.47 years, was assessed using a battery of tests that measured nine variables, three of each category: anthropometry was evaluated via body height (BH), body mass
