We aimed to examine the effects of plyometric jump training (PJT) on measures physical fitness in amateur and professional volleyball players. A systematic electronic literature search was carried out databases PubMed, MEDLINE, Web Science, SCOPUS. Controlled studies including pre-to-post intervention tests involving healthy players regardless age sex were considered. random-effects model used calculate effect sizes (ES) between control groups. Moderator analyses considered programme...
Understanding the relationship between mechanical variables derived from actions such as jumping, sprinting, or ballistic bench press throwing and sport-specific performance moves is of scientific practical interest for strength conditioning coaches improving training programs. We examined association force-velocity (FV) profiles aforementioned spike serve ball speeds in elite volleyball players.

A descriptive correlational inter-and intragroup observational design used. variables studied were: category competition, tempo, performance....
Background: The increase in exercise levels the last few years among professional and recreational female athletes has led to an increased scientific interest about sports health performance athlete population. purpose of IronFEMME Study described this protocol article is determine influence different hormonal profiles on iron metabolism response endurance exercise, main markers muscle damage resistance exercise; both eumenorrheic, oral contraceptive (OC) users postmenopausal well-trained...
The aim of this study was to explore the effect scoring first on match outcomes in Chinese Football Super League (CSL). A total 1,116 matches which at least one goal scored from 2014 2018 seasons were collected. Match outcomes, absolute differences, minute goal, locations, and teams’ budgets analyzed. team’s budget measured terms a value beginning season, teams clustered into two groups (high low with means 50.77 13.77 million dollars, respectively). descriptive analysis conducted,...
Although there is a wide range of validated devices to measure vertical jump height, the degree interchangeability among them currently unknown. Aims: The purpose this study was examine concurrent validity and reliability multiple height in men’s handball players. Methods: Sixteen players (age = 24.0 ± 3.7 years old) performed three types jumps (n= 144—squat (SJ), countermovement (CMJ) Abalakov (ABK)) on contact platform (CHRONOJUMP®) while simultaneously being measured with two inertial...
The aim of this study was to analyze the technical-tactical performance profile serve for various age groups and categories competition in men's volleyball. sample comprised 13,262 serves performed by 986 players 299 sets observed (U-14, U-16, U-19, national senior, international senior). An observational design used. variables studied were category competition, type execution, performance. results showed that higher (senior categories), there significantly fewer jump poorer performance,...
