Estimation of Peak Muscle Power From a Countermovement Vertical Jump in Children and Adolescents.

Several equations to predict muscle power (MP) from vertical jump height (VJH) have been developed in adults. However, few have been derived in children. We therefore aimed to: (a) evaluate the validity of e weiter...
