  1. 6. Does a Tailored Nine-week Training Intervention Improve Jump Height, Single-leg Stability, and Whole-body Stability Performance in Young Cross-country Skiers?

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för idrottsmedicin

    Author : Frank Rizzo; [2020]
    Keywords : Vertical ground-reaction forces; rate of force development; core stability; full-body test; balance; Olympic winter sport;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study was to investigate if a nine-week training intervention composed of different mobility and stability exercises intending to improve jump height, whole-body stability, and single-leg stability of junior cross-country skiers. It was also of interest to see if the test equipment could determine the study participants' potential risk of injury with a built-in injury predictor measurement, Musculoskeletal Health (MSK).

  2. 7. The effect of flywheel training on functional neuromuscular performance in physically active youth

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

    Author : Niklas Westblad; [2018]
    Keywords : flywheel training youth resistance training peak height velocity;

    Abstract : Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of flywheel resistance training on functional neuromuscular performance in physically active youth.   Method Forty-four healthy and physically active youth between 12-14 years of age (n=19 boys & n=25 girls) volunteered to participate and were randomized into three different groups of flywheel resistance training (FRT) (n=15, body mass = 42,9 ± 8,6 kg, time to Peak Height Velocity (PHV) = - 0,8 ± 1,6), traditional strength training (TST) (n=15, body mass = 44,7 ± 10,3 kg, time to PHV = - 0,8 ± 1,5) and a control group (CON) (n=14, body mass = 43,8 ± 9,0 kg, time to PHV- 0,8 ± 1,5.

  3. 8. Very Heavy Resisted Sprinting: A Better Way to Improve Acceleration? : Effects of a 4-Week Very Heavy Resisted Sprinting Intervention on Acceleration, Sprint and Jump Performance in Youth Soccer Players

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

    Author : Domen Bremec; [2018]
    Keywords : sprint; resisted sprinting; acceleration; jumping; speed; football; soccer;

    Abstract : Abstract Aim was to investigate the effects of heavy resisted and unresisted sprint training protocols and see its effects on sprint time, vertical and horizontal jumping and sprint mechanics. Youth male soccer players [n=27] participated in this study, they were all individually assessed for the horizontal force-velocity profile using two unresisted sprints and load-velocity profile using four progressively resisted sprints (25%, 50%, 75% and 100% body mass).

  4. 9. Jump ability and knee stability in adolescents with different elasticity training

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Filip Dahlström; [2017]
    Keywords : Plyometric training; Trampoline training; Jump height; Stretch-shortening cycle; Knee stability;

    Abstract : Background: Jump height, utilization of the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) and knee stability is key qualifications and important factors for athletic performance. This is usually practiced with the help of plyometric training. However, plyometric training is considered as an exercise with high-impact that adds stress on the body. READ MORE

  5. 10. The relationship between upper and lower body power and strength and boxers’ number of completed bouts

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Mikael Dabrowski; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Competitive boxers from southern region of Sweden, performed three different strength and power tests in the upper and lower body - body weight-relative standing rotational power (RSRP), countermovement jump (CMJ) and handgrip strength (HGS) - to evaluate correlations between number of completed bouts and the tests. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to investigate the linear correlation between number of completed bouts and three different tests – RSRP, CMJ and HGS in 16 male senior boxers. READ MORE
