Phase-Specific Verbal Cue Effects on Countermovement Jump Performance.

Krzyszkowski, J, Chowning, LD, and Harry, JR. Phase-Specific Verbal Cue Effects on Countermovement Jump Performance. J Strength Cond Res 36(12): 3352-3358, 2022-The aim of this study was to determine whether countermovement vertical jump (CMVJ) phase-specific cues can improve jump performance and phase-specific force-time characteristics.

Phase-Specific Force and Time Predictors of Standing Long Jump Distance.

This study sought to identify potential predictors of standing long jump (SLJ) performance using force-time strategy metrics within the unloading, eccentric yielding, eccentric braking, and concentric phases. Fifteen National Collegiate Athletic Association division 1 male soccer players (19 [1] y, 1.81 [0.

Relationships among countermovement vertical jump performance metrics, strategy variables, and inter-limb asymmetry in females.

Dependent variables commonly studied during countermovement vertical jump (CMVJ) tests largely stem from male-only studies despite females'distinct energy storage and reutilisation strategies. This could limit progress among females seeking increased CMVJ performance through targeted changes in certain variables. We explored relationships between CMVJ performance metrics (jump height, modified reactive strength index, jump power, and takeoff momentum) and (a) temporal and force application variables and (b) inter-limb force and yank (i.

Maximalist shoes do not alter performance or joint mechanical output during the countermovement jump.

This study examined potential differences between maximally cushioned (MAX) shoes and standard cushioned (STND) shoes during countermovement vertical jump (CMVJ) performance. Twenty-one males (23[2] y; 86.5[15.

Phase-Specific Predictors of Countermovement Jump Performance That Distinguish Good From Poor Jumpers.

Krzyszkowski, J, Chowning, LD, and Harry, JR. Phase-specific predictors of countermovement jump performance that distinguish good from poor jumpers. J Strength Cond Res 36(5): 1257-1263, 2022-The modified-reactive strength index (RSImod) is commonly examined during the countermovement vertical jump (CMJ) to assess neuromuscular characteristics (i.
