Original Title:
Η Επίδραση Διαφορετικού Τύπου Άλματος με ή χωρίς πρόσθετη επιβάρυνση, από διαφορετικά ύψη πτώσης στο ύψος του άλματος σε Φοιτήτριες ειδίκευσης Ενόργανης Γυμναστικής
Translated title:
The Effect of Different Types of Jumps with and without Load from Different Drop Heights on Jump Height in Female Students Specializing in Gymnastics
Summary:
The purpose of the study was to examine the effect of different types of jumps (Bounced Drop Jump and Counter Movement Drop Jump) with or without additional load from different drop heights on jump height. The sample consisted of 12 female students of SEFAA of Athens specializing in artistic gymnastics. Each participant performed two attempts at each type of jump and from each drop height. The results did not show a significant interaction between the three factors (jump type, jump height, load) on the examined variables (jump height, contact time, and take-off). Also, no significant interaction was found between the type of jump and condition (with or without load) on flight height, contact time, and take-off. In conclusion, there was a decrease in mean jump height when increasing the drop height in all conditions, while the additional load negatively affected performance, observing a decrease in mean jump height and take-off speed. In addition, regarding the contact time, the results showed an increasing trend with the drop height, but no statistically significant differences were observed between the conditions.
