Optimizing stretch-shortening cycle performance: effects of drop height and landing strategy on lower-limb biomechanics in drop jumps

Background The stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) enhances performance in jumping, sprinting, and changes of direction. Drop heights and landing strategies affect its efficiency. This study investigates the effects of varying drop heights and landing strategies (hip- vs. knee-dominant) on lower-limb str...
