The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between linear sprint, power output
obtained during a squat and change of direction (COD) performance. Fifteen elite soccer …

Change of direction (COD) performance has an essential role in soccer. In the literature,
there is a wide range of explained variance in correlation analyses between linear-sprint …

The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of maximum strength and
power levels on change of direction (COD) ability and deficit in elite soccer and rugby …

Our objective was to examine the relationship between change of direction (CoD)
performance, with (CoDb), and without the ball (CoDwb), and selected measures of physical …

Introduction: Although soccer matches require players to perform repetitive power-related
abilities, the impact of lower-body strength and power asymmetry on sprint and change of …

The study investigated the relationship between short sprint performance and mechanical
parameters obtained during the acceleration and deceleration tasks with the change of …

Purpose. The study compared the change-of-direction deficit (CODD) using the first 10-m
sprint of a 40-m sprint test (CODDoriginal), the 10-m time that precedes the 5-0-5 test …

Background The ability to change direction is considered of paramount importance in team
sports. Currently there is a lack of consensus regarding the most important physical factors …

This study examined which mechanical variables derived from a vertical jump (ie concentric
peak force [ConcPF] and eccentric peak force [EccPF], flight time [FT]: contraction time [CT] …

The curved sprint test is the most commonly used test in team sports. From a practical point
of view, it would be interesting to know to what extent it is related to a direct sprint and a …
