Abstract
ObjectivesThe aim of this study is to investigate the correlation of anaerobic power and capacity on vertical jump performance in female volleyball athletes. MethodsThirty-five female volleyball athletes who play at elite level, participated in the study voluntarily. Anaerobic power and capacity were measured by Wingate Anaerobic Performance Test, while vertical jump performance was measured by Optojump Photoelectric Cell System. Vertical jump performance was evaluated in two different jump positions as squat jump and countermovement jump. ResultsAs a result of the correlation analysis of the data obtained with the tests, no relationship was found between anaerobic power and anaerobic capacity with squat and countermovement jump (p > 0.05). However, there are not significant relationship between relative anaerobic power and capacity with squat and countermovement jump (p < 0.05). Also, there is a negative correlation between body mass index and squat jump (r = −0.454) and countermovement jump (r = −0.590). ConclusionsOur results revealed that while anaerobic power and capacity are not related to jump performance, relative anaerobic power and capacity are related to vertical jump performance.
