Previous cross-sectional studies have reported that higher drop heights do not always result
in improved performance, and may increase injury risk during drop jumps (DJ). The purpose …

By placing the muscles of the take-off leg in faster eccentric or slower concentric conditions,
a high jumper can increase the ground reaction force and the height of the jump. Film …

Purpose: To quantify possible differences in countermovement jump height across sport
disciplines and sex in national-team athletes. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 588 …
