Performances and Fatigue Responses to Weighted Vest Training in Parkour Novices

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Weighted vest training has demonstrated benefits for muscle strength, which is critical for parkour performance. However, the acute effects of external loading in this discipline remain poorly understood. This study investigated the impact of weighted vest use during parkour sessions on lower‐limb performance, perceived exertion, and muscle ...
