Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine whether multiple, heavy quarter squats could acutely improve countermovement jump (CMJ) height through the mechanism of postactivation potentiation (PAP). Eleven female, collegiate volleyball and basketball athletes were recruited for this study. Forty-eight hours after determining their quarter squat one repetition max (1RM), the participants were brought back to the gymnasium and performed baseline CMJs, followed by the conditioning stimulus of five quarter squats at 90% of their 1RM. CMJs were then executed at 2 min, 4 min, and 6 min poststimulus. A comparison of the means showed increases between baseline jumps and poststimulus jumps of 0.59 in (1.50 cm), 0.46 in (1.17 cm), and 0.76 in (1.93 cm) at the 2 min, 4 min, and 6 min time points, respectively. The means demonstrated a slight improvement from pre to post, but a repeated measures ANOVA showed no significant difference between baseline and poststimulation CMJs, F(3,11) = 1.608, p = .262. The statistical power of the study was 28%. Future studies may need more participants to obtain greater power even though an a priori power analysis showed a minimum of 9 participants was needed to achieve 80% power. The results are encouraging, but the findings are not yet applicable to current training paradigms for college-age women. More research using this and other designs with female samples is necessary.

Download or read book Response of Vertical Jump Height in Female Athletes 10 14 Years Old to a Lower Body Strength Training Program written by Richard Sylvester and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strength training is safe and effective for children according to a position statement by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (2009). One such effect or benefit can be increased vertical jump ability. Due to methodological inconsistencies, determining whether strength training consistently leads to increased vertical jump has been difficult to do. This randomized study involved a 12-week, two-time per week lower body strength training program for the intervention group, and an upper body strength training program for the control group. A countermovement jump tested at baseline and post-intervention by a blinded observer measured the effect of this training intervention on the vertical jump ability of 10-14 year old athletic females (n=36). The results revealed no significant changes within each group from baseline to post-intervention and no significant differences between each group. It appears that a number of factors may have influenced the results of this study not the least of which was the high baseline ability of the participants. More research using strong methods, a sufficient training stimulus and female children is needed in order to clarify the response of vertical jump to a resistance training intervention.
