Η επίδραση του υποδήματος στο κατακόρυφο άλμα
Translated title:
The effect of footweat on vertical jump
Summary:
In this thesis, the effect of using or not using
of footwear on vertical jump. The vertical jump is a frequently
used test to evaluate athletes, due to the continuous use of the
use in a large number of sports, and many injuries result from the use of the
from performing the vertical jump in athletes who
athletes who repeat this movement.
The aim of this research was therefore to compare the performance of a group of athletes
in the vertical jump with and without footwear in order to investigate the
extent of the effect of footwear on jumping. 12 participants took part in the study
volunteer athletes aged 20-30 years, of which 8 were male and 3 were male.
3 women. Each subject performed 1 counter-movement jump
(Counter Movement Jump) with footwear and then 1 jump without footwear. In case of
the procedure was repeated in case of incorrect performance. For the quantitative
performance in the vertical jump was evaluated using the BTS
G-Walk Bioengineering, in combination with the BAIOBIT software, which
contains inertial sensors and allows the evaluation of the vertical jump and the
jump in any place, even outside the laboratory. The results
of the parameters measured and related to speed, and
namely the average velocity, the maximum velocity and the velocity
take-off speed, showed that under these conditions the use or not of footwear
did not affect the maximum jump height.
