Plyometrics training is paid great attention by coaches and researchers because of its
significant effect on the level of lower limb explosive athletes. Many coaches and reseachers …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of stiffness regulated by landing
styles on drop jump performance. Twenty-four male lacrosse athletes performed drop jumps …

OBJECTIVE: Compare the muscle activation patterns of the quadricep-hamstring during
drop jumps with increasing demands of drop heights. DESIGN: Observational. SETTING …

Abstract Kollias, I., V. Panoutsakopoulos, and G. Papaiakovou. Comparing jumping ability
among athletes of various sports: Vertical drop jumping from 60 centimeters. J. Strength …

Background General expectations speculated that there are differences between drop jump
(DJ) and horizontal drop jump (HDJ) exercises. While these criteria may be valid, we have …

The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanics of single-and double-legged
drop jumps (SDJ vs. DDJ) with changes in drop height. Jumping height, ground contact time …

In the literature, athletes preparing for explosive activities are recommended to include drop
jumping in their training programs. For the execution of drop jumps, different techniques and …

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of assisted and traditional drop
jumps on fast stretch-shortening cycle exercises in collegiate athletes. Participants were …

This study examined whether analysing kinetic features of drop jumps (DJ) as one-
dimensional biomechanical curves can reveal specific patterns that are consistent and can …

Athletic women have shown a higher risk of ACL injury during jump landing compared to
men. Plyometric training can be an alternative way to minimize the risk of knee injuries via …
