Abstract


The first goal of the study was to examine the relationship between maximum muscle strength and optimal drop height (DHopt), while the second goal was to examine the relationship between regression models for the prediction of DHopt and DHopt determined by variable H. A total of 30 respondents, students of the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education participated in the experiment. During the experiment, eight altitudes were randomized in the range of 0.12 to 0.82 m. The instruction was to achieve a higher jump, with a shorter duration of rebound. A positive statistically significant correlation between DHopt determined by prediction method with 1 RM / BW0.67 and MDS (p<0.05) was calculated. When computing the DHopt connection determined by the dialing method with the maximum muscle strength of the subjects, no statistically significant correlation was obtained, but there is a positive trend. Determined by the prediction method DHopt is (0.47±0.17 m) and using the regression model with 1 RM/BW0.67 (0.47±0.07 m) and with MDS (0.48±0.06 m). In order to explain high relationship between models, it should be noted that the muscles of knee joint have a more important role in motor tasks performed at higher intensity like during drop jump. With this in mind, DHopt in the jumping jump can be determined depending on the neuromuscular capacity to generate the maximum muscle strength of the knee of the knee in order to use the optimal intensity within the pliometric training.
