SPORTSMETRICS™ TRAINING IMPROVES POWER AND LANDING IN HIGH SCHOOL ROWERS.
Int J Sports Phys Ther
February 2016
Background: Successful rowing participation requires leg power, back strength, cardiovascular endurance, and balance. SportsMetrics™ training improves lower limb alignment, hamstring peak torque, and vertical jump height; however, this training has not been used in athletes who row and may have different outcomes based on experience level.
Purpose/hypotheses: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a six-week SportsMetrics™ training program on vertical jump height (VJH), Y Balance Test (YBT), and Drop Jump Screening Test (DJST) between novice and varsity high school rowers.
