Abstract
Plyometrics training is paid great attention by coaches and researchers because of its significant effect on the level of lower limb explosive athletes. Many coaches and reseachers use the biomechanical methods to determine optimal loading height for drop jump. The researchers' findings in determining optimal loading height were highly biased and were not applied effectively to training practices. This paper reviews the development process of optimal loading height in deep-jump training, combs the relevant concepts and biomechanical mechanisms of optimal loading height in deep-jump training, and looks forward to the future research.
Highlights
Plyometrics training has always been an important topic among coaches and researches. e drop jump is a core part of this training program
Researches examine the relevancy between related indicators of optimal loading height and the sports performance on the basis of determining the optimal loading height of drop jump and select the loading height of drop jump according to the aforesaid relevancy, which can make the research findings applied in sports training more effective
Lee et al [6] reached a different conclusion. e experimental results indicated that when the drop height for Drop jump (DJ) is 0.36 m, the vertical counteracting force reaches the peak, and the loading height for DJ under the maximum average power output is 0.12 m8. is discovery challenged the viewpoint of Bobbert et al that vertical counteracting force and average power output will increase with the rise of loading height for DJ, which indicates that only under a reasonable loading height can muscles achieve the maximum vertical counteracting force and average power output
Summary
Plyometrics training has always been an important topic among coaches and researches. e drop jump is a core part of this training program. Researches examine the relevancy between related indicators of optimal loading height (such as average power and reactive strength) and the sports performance on the basis of determining the optimal loading height of drop jump and select the loading height of drop jump according to the aforesaid relevancy, which can make the research findings applied in sports training more effective. E optimal loading height of related drop jump training covers two aspects, namely, average power output and jump height when the reactive strength reaches a peak. Journal of Healthcare Engineering have reached a consensus on the significant impact of optimal loading height for DJ on low limb explosive power, the researchers’ findings in determining the optimal loading height are highly biased It has gradually become a focus of the researchers to improve the sports performance through an effective application of optimal loading height
