SUMMARYPOWER AND JUMPING ABILITY CORRELATE WITH SPORT PERFORMANCE. IMPROVING MAXIMAL FORCE AND/OR VELOCITY INCREASES POWER PRODUCTION, AND THEREFORE THEORETICALLY ENHANCES GAME PLAY. COACHES AND RESEARCHERS ALIKE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BOTH JUMPING SPECIFIC (E.G., PLYOMETRICS) AND NONJUMPING ACTIVITIES ...

Mechanical efficiency during repetitive vertical jumping
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2007The purpose of this study was to compare mechanical efficiency between repeated static jumps (SJ), countermovement jumps (CMJ), drop jumps from 75% of maximum CMJ jump height (75DJ) and drop jumps from 125% of maximum CMJ height (125DJ). Subjects included eight jump-trained males.

Validity of vertical jump measurement devices
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2012Vertical jump height is thought to provide a valuable index of muscular power, which is an important factor in sports performance and for assessing the mobility and functional capacity of injured or aged individuals. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the criterion validity of four popular devices for measuring vertical jump height.

Relative Net Vertical Impulse Determines Jumping Performance
Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 2011The purpose of this investigation was to determine the relationship between relative net vertical impulse and jump height in a countermovement jump and static jump performed to varying squat depths. Ten college-aged males with 2 years of jumping experience participated in this investigation (age: 23.3 ± 1.5 years; height: 176.7 ± 4.5 cm; body mass: 84 ...

Predicting depth vertical jumping distance
Isokinetics and Exercise Science, 1998If independent variables collectively account for each person's ability to vertically jump, then appropriate manipulations of any or all of these factors would be expected to improve jumping performance.Furthermore, if training may elicit the desired manipulations, then the identification of specific weaknesses would enable clinicians and scientists ...

The effects of drop vertical jump technique on landing and jumping kinetics and jump performance
Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2021The drop vertical jump is a popular plyometric exercise. Two distinct techniques are commonly used to initiate the drop vertical jump. With the 'step-off' technique, athletes step off a raised platform with their dominant limb, while their non-dominant limb remains on the platform.

Maximum height and minimum time vertical jumping
Journal of Biomechanics, 2015The performance criterion in maximum vertical jumping has typically been assumed to simply raise the center of mass as high as possible. In many sporting activities minimizing movement time during the jump is likely also critical to successful performance.

Contributive Components in the Vertical Jump
Research Quarterly. American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 1968Abstract The degree of contribution to performance of the vertical jump by leg components plantar flexors, knee extensors, and hip extensors was determined experimentally and tested by analysis of covariance. One control and four experimental groups from 100 college men at Brigham Young University were randomly assigned to varying muscle strengthening ...

Effects of Isometric Training on Vertical Jumping
Research Quarterly. American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 1964Abstract Sixty-three college men were divided into two equated groups on the basis of their initial ability to exert isometric force upward against shoulder pads of a specially constructed device. Measurements were made and the apparatus adjusted to fit each subject so that the knees were flexed to the angle at which a vertical jump is usually ...
