Relationship between kinetic and kinematic variables of squat jump in professional male soccer players
Objective: To determine the relationship between the kinetic and kinematic variables of the squat jump (SJ). Methods: A total of 13 adult male professional soccer players (age = 24.8 ± 4.5 years; body mass = 76.1 ± 6.8 kg; height = 1.77 ± 0.08 m; 6.3 ± 4.1 years of experience) were evaluated. Two P...

| Summary: | Objective: To determine the relationship between the kinetic and kinematic variables of the squat jump (SJ). Methods: A total of 13 adult male professional soccer players (age = 24.8 ± 4.5 years; body mass = 76.1 ± 6.8 kg; height = 1.77 ± 0.08 m; 6.3 ± 4.1 years of experience) were evaluated. Two PASCO PS-2142 force plates were used to measure SJ variables. Correlations coefficients (Spearman's Rho) were performed for analyze the relationship between variables. The variables analyzed were Jump height (JH), jump time (JT), Peak force absolute and normalized (PF and PFN), time to peak force (TPF), peak rate of force development absolute and normalized (PRFD and PRFDN) and time to peak RFD (TRFD).
Results: A moderate negative correlation was found between JH with TPY. Strong to very strong correlations were found between JT with TPF, PFN, PY and PRFDN.
Conclusion: In conclusion, our study of jump performance in professional soccer players revealed valuable insights into the relationships between various SJ variables. So, coaches and researchers should look other variables how JT for assess this capacity since, from a practical point of view, two subjects could obtain the same JH, but one, it could take less time (i.e., shorter JT) to apply force to reach the same JH than other, this within the field in some sports, could determine the winner in some crucial actions. These findings contribute to understanding the factors influencing jump performance in soccer players, potentially informing training, and conditioning strategies to optimize their RFD and athletic capabilities.
