The drop jump exercise requires an athlete to drop from a predetermined height and
immediately after ground contact to perform a jump usually from a double leg takeoff in a …

This study investigated the influence of a horizontal approach to mechanical output during
drop jumps. Participants performed drop jumps from heights of 15, 30, 45, and 60 cm with …
