An athletic profile should encompass the physiological, biomechanical, anthropometric and
performance measures pertinent to the athlete's sport and discipline. The measurement …

Background: Plyometric jump training (PJT) encompasses a range of different exercises that
may offer advantages over other training methods to improve human physical capabilities …

Ballistic performances are determined by both the maximal lower limb power output (P max)
and their individual force-velocity (Fv) mechanical profile, especially the Fv imbalance (FV …

Purpose Resent research has suggested that loaded multi-joint movements could reveal a
linear force–velocity (F–V) relationship. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the F …

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 …

Performance during human movements is highly related to force and velocity muscle
capacities. Those capacities are highly developed in elite athletes practicing power-oriented …

Traditional, assisted and resisted plyometrics are considered to be effective training
methods for improving vertical jump performance. The purpose of this systematic review and …

A number of studies based on maximum vertical jumps have presumed that the maximum
jump height reveals the maximum power of lower limb muscles, as well as the tested muscle …

This study aimed to explore the strength of the force–velocity (F–V) relationship of lower limb
muscles and the reliability of its parameters (maximum force [F 0], slope [a], maximum …

Background Wearable resistance training (WRT) provides a means of activity-or movement-
specific overloading, supposedly resulting in better transference to dynamic sporting …
