Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how different push-off distances affect the maximum height of jumps among CrossFit athletes during countermovement jumps.
  • Results indicated a quadratic relationship between push-off distance and jump height, revealing that each athlete has an optimal push-off distance for maximizing their jump.
  • Additionally, longer push-off distances increased push-off time and decreased mean vertical external force, affecting overall jump performance by altering joint angles and torque production in the process.

The Volodalen® field method permits to classify runners into aerial or terrestrial, based on vertical oscillation, upper-body motion, pelvis and foot position at ground contact, and foot strike pattern. The present study aimed to compare the sprint running force-velocity profiles between aerial and terrestrial runners. Sixty-Four French National-Level young soccer players (28 females, 36 males) performed three trials of unloaded maximal 40 m sprints.
