The drop height determines neuromuscular adaptations and changes in jump performance in stretch-shortening cycle training

Taube, Wolfgang ; Leukel, Christian ; Lauber, B. ; Gollhofer, Albert

In: Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2011, p. -

There is an ongoing discussion about how to improve jump performance most efficiently with plyometric training. It has been proposed that drop height influences the outcome, although longitudinal studies are missing. Based on cross-sectional drop jump studies showing height-dependent Hoffmann (H)-reflex activities, we hypothesized that the drop height should influence the neuromuscular...

Changes in predictive motor control in drop-jumps based on uncertainties in task execution

Leukel, Christian ; Taube, Wolfgang ; Lorch, Michael ; Gollhofer, Albert

In: Human Movement Science, 2011, p. -

Drop-jumps are controlled by predictive and reactive motor strategies which differ with respect to the utilization of sensory feedback. With reaction, sensory feedback is integrated while performing the task. With prediction, sensory information may be used prior to movement onset. Certainty about upcoming events is important for prediction. The present study aimed at investigating how...
