Molly C. Henneberry; Dana Agar-Newman; Seth Lenetsky; Marc D. Klimstra – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
Upper body force-velocity profiles to assess musculoskeletal performance are created using release speed (RS) of the barbell in a bench press throw (BPT). A more easily obtained variable is peak speed (PS) measured by a linear position transducer. We assessed the validity of predicting RS from measured PS. One hundred and seventy-eight throws from…

Juliano Dal Pupo; Rafael Lima Kons; Rodrigo Ghedini Gheller; Carlos W. P. Gonçalves; Amilton Vieira – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
This study aimed to analyze the intrasession reliability of the rate of force development (RFD) in different time windows in squat jumps (SJ) performed at different knee starting angles, and identify the relationship of RFD with vertical jump height (VJH). Twenty male volleyball and basketball players participated. Athletes randomly performed SJ…

Justin Kompf; Ryan Rhodes – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2024
The measurement of resistance training (RT) is often based on adaptations of aerobic physical activity measures which may not contain the elements necessary to assess RT. The purpose of this systematic review was to examine what measures are used to assess RT and appraise their composition. Specifically, the inclusion of frequency, duration,…

Haiko Bruno Zimmermann; Debora Knihs; Raphael Sakugawa; Chris Bishop; Juliano Dal Pupo – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2024
Background: Measures that assess muscle strength and its development, either voluntarily or involuntarily, are important in the clinical and research context. The main aim of this study was to verify the interday reliability and the minimum detectable change (MDC) of the knee extensors muscles torque using evoked contractions and explosive…

Jernej Pleša; Žiga Kozinc; Chris Bishop; Nejc Šarabon – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2024
We investigated the associations and differences between dynamic strength index (DSI) calculated from different types of vertical jump (countermovement jump; CMJ and squat jump; SJ) and different isometric knee joint angles (30, 60 and 90[degrees]), and associations with force-velocity (FV) profile and its constituent variables (maximal…
