Post-Isometric Back Squat Performance Enhancement of Squat and Countermovement Jump

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
The effectiveness of isometric conditioning activity (CA) is not well described in terms of the level of performance enhancement and the presence of a stretch and shortening cycle in subsequent explosive tasks. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a maximum isometric squat as the CA and a subsequent squat jump (SJ) and ...

Increasing Compliance to Instructions in the Squat Jump

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2008
The purposes of this investigation were to evaluate the occurrence of a small amplitude counter-movement (SACM) in SJ (squat jump) trials of elite athletes to determine the efficacy of gross observation and the use of a portable position transducer to determine whether or not a SACM occurred.

On Squat Jump Exercise

Volume 3: Biomedical and Biotechnology Engineering, 2016
This paper deals with the mechanics of the human leg and forces in the muscles, ligaments, and joint contact in the leg during a squat jump exercise. An inverse dynamics approach is used in this work. A 2-D dynamic model of one limb in the sagittal plane is used to investigate this ballistic task.

Influence of Squatting Depth on Jumping Performance

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2012
It is unclear if increases in 1 repetition maximum (1RM) in quarter squats result in higher gains compared with full depth squats in isometric force production and vertical jump performance. The aim of the research projects was to compare the effects of different squat variants on the development of 1RM and their transfer effects to Countermovement ...

How Fast Is a Horizontal Squat Jump?

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2018
Velocity strength training requires exercise modalities that allow athletes to reach very high movement velocity, which is limited during vertical movements involving body weight. Purpose: To quantify the mechanical outputs developed during horizontal squat jumps (HSJs), notably the movement velocity, in comparison with vertical squat jumps (SJs) with ...

A biomechanical comparison of the vertical jump, power clean, and jump squat

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2014
The purpose of this study was to compare the kinetics, kinematics, and muscle activation patterns of the countermovement jump, the power clean, and the jump squat with the expectation of gaining a better understanding of the mechanism of transfer from the power clean to the vertical jump.

Acute Effects of Heavy-Load Squats on Consecutive Squat Jump Performance

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2008
Postactivation potentiation (PAP) and complex training have generated interest within the strength and conditioning community in recent years, but much of the research to date has produced confounding results. The purpose of this study was to observe the acute effects of a heavy-load back squat [85% 1 repetition maximum (1RM)] condition on consecutive ...

Choice of Jumping Strategy in Two Standard Jumps, Squat and Countermovement Jump-Effect of Training Background or Inherited Preference?

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports, 1999
Six male subjects, three professional ballet dancers and three elite volleyball players, performed maximal vertical jumps from 1) a static preparatory position (squat jump), 2) starting with a countermovement (counter‐movement jump) and 3) a specific jump for ballet and for volleyball, respectively.
