Postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) using a vertical jump to improve vertical jump performance

The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness, 2022
Postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) is a principle that suggests that an acute bout of high intensity voluntary exercise will be followed by an improvement in strength, power, and speed of a subsequent task. This study intended to demonstrate how a maximal vertical jump (VJ) can enhance the outcome of a subsequent VJ compared to a multiple ...

Coordination in vertical jumping

Journal of Biomechanics, 1988
The present study was designed to investigate for vertical jumping the relationships between muscle actions, movement pattern and jumping achievement. Ten skilled jumpers performed jumps with preparatory countermovement. Ground reaction forces and cinematographic data were recorded.

Performing the vertical jump: Movement adaptations for submaximal jumping

Human Movement Science, 2004
The purpose of this study was to gain insight into the kinematics and kinetics of the vertical jump when jumping for different heights and to investigate movement effectiveness as a criterion for movement control in submaximal jumping. In order to jump high a countermovement is used and large body segments are rotated, both of which consume energy ...

Vertical jump coordination: fatigue effects

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2002
The aim of this study was to investigate the segmental coordination of vertical jumps under fatigue of the knee extensor and flexor muscles.Eleven healthy and active subjects performed maximal vertical jumps with and without fatigue, which was imposed by requesting the subjects to extend/flex their knees continuously in a weight machine, until they ...

Effects of Assisted Jumping on Vertical Jump Parameters

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2012
Vertical jumping ability is a critical skill for success in many sports. Previous studies have reported conflicting results on the effects of heavy-load, light-load, contrast, or plyometric training to improve vertical jump height. A novel jump training method, using assistance via elastic cords or an absolute weight, has received little attention ...

Association between traditional standing vertical jumps and a soccer‐specific vertical jump

European Journal of Sport Science, 2012
AbstractThe present study aimed to determine the relationships between a soccer‐specific vertical jump (ssVJ) test, that included common elements of a soccer VJ (e.g. run‐up and intention to head), and three traditional VJ tests using elite soccer players.
