A Novel Method to Categorize Stretch-Shortening Cycle Performance Across Maturity in Youth Soccer Players. [PDF]
This study used a novel method to categorize stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) function during a drop jump (DJ) using the force-time curve. This method was then used to determine the effect of maturity status upon SSC function and effect of SSC function on ...

VERTICAL JUMPING PERFORMANCE RELATES TO SPRINTING PERFORMANCE OVER SHORT DISTANCES AND DIFFERENT SECTIONS [PDF]
A high level of sprinting performance is relevant in various sports. Because of the transition of movement patterns in different sprint sections there is a shift in the relevance of speed-strength of the knee and hip extensors, and stretch-shortening ...

STRETCH-SHORTENING CYCLE AS A BASIS OF PLYOMETRIC TRAINING [PDF]
Pliometrijski trening oblik je treninga u kojem dominiraju skakački ili bacački pokreti, odnosno balistički pokreti koji u svojoj izvedbi sadrže tzv. ekscentrično-koncentrični mišićni režim rada.

Countermovement, Hurdle, and Box Jumps: Data-Driven Exercise Selection
Apart from squat jumps, countermovement jumps (CMJ), and drop jumps, differences among other jump variations are not as well researched, making data-driven exercise selection difficult.

The Stretch-Shortening Cycle Training Increases Agility and Speed in Young Males [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effect of stretch-shortening cycle training on developing speed and agility in young males. The method used in this research was pre-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design for one group.

Stretch-shortening cycle in skeletal muscle function : with special reference to elastic energy and potentiation of myoelectrical activity [PDF]
Mechanical behaviour of human leg extensor muscles was investigated under conditions of varied stretch-shortening (eccentric-concentric) cycle movements of the vertical jump.

Muscle force, work, and power output during concentric contractions (active muscle shortening) are increased immediately following an eccentric contraction (active muscle lengthening). This increase in performance is known as the stretch-shortening cycle

Review of Literature: Neuromuscular Adaptations to Plyometrics
Plyometric exercises are a training stimulus that were developed in an attempt to bridge the gap between weight room muscular strength exercises and the speed or power needed on the track, field or court.

Reflex facilitation during the stretch-shortening cycle
Maximal torque during the concentric phase of a movement has been shown to be enhanced by prior eccentric muscle actions, a movement strategy referred to as the stretch-shortening cycle. Although the mechanical basis for this enhancement is well established, the neural component is not.
