ABSTRACT RODACKI, ALF, NE FOWLER, and SJ BENNETT. Vertical jump coordination:
fatigue effects. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 34, No. 1, 2002, pp. 105–116. Purpose: The aim …

This study measured peak force (PF), peak rate of force development (PRFD), peak power
(PP), concentric impulse, and eccentric impulse during static jump (SJ), countermovement …

The purpose of this study was to compare the dynamics characteristics of different jumps
including the swimming grab start, squat jump, and countermovement jump. The subjects …

The purposes of this study were to quantify and compare how arm swing and
countermovement affect lower extremity torque and work during vertical jumping and to gain …

The basic drill of plyometric training aimed at improving lower limb power and jump height is
a drop jump. This exercise can be performed using different techniques, which substantially …

The 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 …

The neuromuscular characteristics of the triceps surae muscle were investigated during the
various types of stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) muscle loading. The analysis concentrated …

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 …

The purpose of this study was to examine the co-activation of the rectus femoris (RF) and
biceps femoris (BF) during drop jumping exercises using the co-contraction index (CI). Ten …

Although maximum height (H max), muscle force (F), and power output (P), have been
routinely obtained from maximum vertical jumps for various purposes, a possible role of the …
