Reliability Of Vertical Jump And Triple Horizontal Jump Tests At Different Times Of The Training Season In Elite Basketball Players [reprodutibilidade Dos Testes De Salto Vertical E Salto Horizontal Triplo Consecutivo Em Diferentes Etapas Da Preparação De Basquetebolistas De Alto Rendimento]

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability of vertical jump (VJ) test with countermovement and horizontal triple jump (HTJ), in elite male basketball players in two specific moments (T1) and (T2). Thirty-two athletes were submitted to three trials of each jump. The tests were performed at the end of the preparation phase for official competition for each evaluated team (T1) and at the end of the competition phase (T2) with an interval of 12-14 weeks between T1 and T2. The student-t test for paired samples was used to verify differences between the two measures obtained at the same moment (p 0.05) were found. High correlation coefficients were observed in T1 and T2, as well as high ICC values (VJ; T1 - 0.979 and HTJ; T1 = 0.89 and T2 = 0.97) and low CV values (VJ =1.88 and 1.55; HTJ = 2.44 and 1.34). The results of this study showed high reliability for VJ and HTJ. However, it seems that internal consistency of the measure tends to increase with training.846672Moir, G., Button, C., Glaister, M., Stone, M.H., Influence of familiarization on the reliability of vertical jump and acceleration sprinting performance in physically active men (2004) J Strength Cond Res, 18 (2), pp. 276-280Cronin, J.B., Hing, R.D., McNair, P.J., Reliability and validity of a linear position transducer for measuring jump performance (2004) J Strength Cond Res, 18 (3), pp. 590-593Cronin, J.B., Hansen, K.T., Strength and power predictors of sports speed (2005) J Strength Cond Res, 19 (2), pp. 349-357Arteaga, R., Dorado, C., Chavarren, J., Calbet, J.A., Reliability of jumping performance in active men and women under different stretch loading conditions (2000) J Sports Med Phys Fitness, 40 (1), pp. 26-34Hennessy, L., Kilty, J., Relationship of the stretchshortening cycle to sprint performance in trained female athletes (2001) J Strength Cond Res, 15 (3), pp. 326-331Young, W., Elliott, S., Acute effects of static stretching, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching, and maximum voluntary contractions on explosive force production and jumping perfomance (2001) Res Q Exerc Sport, 72 (3), pp. 273-279Wilson, G.J., Murphy, A.J., Giorgi, A., Weight and plyometric training: Effects on eccentric and concentric force production (1997) Can J Appl Physiol, 21, pp. 301-314Young, W., Laboratory strength assessment of athletes (1995) N Stud Athletics, 10, pp. 89-96Schmidtbleicher, D., Training for power events (1992) Strength and power training, pp. 381-395. , In: Komi PV, editor, Oxford: Blackwell ScientificBosco, C., Belli, A., Astrua, M., Tihanyi, J., Pozzo, R., Kellis, S., A dynamometer for evaluation of dynamic muscle work (1995) Eur J Appl Physiol, 70 (5), pp. 379-386Young, W., Pryor, J., Wilson, G., Effect of instructions on characteristic of countermovement and drop jump performance (1995) J Strength Cond Res, 9 (4), pp. 232-236Hoffman, J.R., Kang, J., Strength changes during an in-season resistance-training program for football (2003) J Strength Cond Res, 17 (1), pp. 109-114Kellis, S.E., Tsitskaris, G.K., Nikopoulou, M.D., Mousikou, K.C., The evaluation of jumping ability of male and female basketball players according to their chronological age and major leagues (1999) J Strength Cond Res, 13 (1), pp. 40-46Lacour, R., Physiological analysis of qualities required in sprinting (1996) N Stud Athletics, 11, pp. 59-62Locatelli, E., The importance of anaerobic glycolysis and stiffness in the sprints (60, 100 and 200 metres) (1996) N Stud Athletics, 11, pp. 121-126Manning, J.M., Dooly-Manning, C., Perrin, D.H., Factor analysis of various anaerobic power tests (1988) J Sports Med Phys Fitness, 28 (2), pp. 138-144Moravec, P., Ruzicka, J., Susanka, P., Dostal, E., Kodejs, M., Nosek, M., The 1987 International athletic foundation/ IAAF scientific project report: Time analysis of the 100 metres events at the II world championships in athletics (1988) N Stud Athletics, 3, pp. 61-96Vittori, C., Monitoring the training of the sprinter (1995) N Stud Athletics, 10, pp. 39-44Moreira, A., Oliveira, P.R., Okano, A.H., Souza, M., Arruda, M., A dinâmica de alteração das medidas de força e o efeito posterior duradouro de treinamento em basquetebolistas submetidos ao sistema de treinamento em bloco (2004) Rev Bras Med Espor te, 10 (4), pp. 243-250Newton, R.U., Dugan, E., Application of strength diagnosis (2002) Strength Cond J, 24 (5), pp. 50-59Moreira, A., (2002) Basquetebol: Sistema de treinamento em bloco-organização e controle, , [Dissertação de Mestrado-Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação Física].
