The “2-point method,” originally referred to as the “2-load method,” was proposed in 2016 by
Prof Slobodan Jaric to characterize the maximal mechanical capacities of the muscles to …

Traditional neuromuscular tests (eg, jumping and sprinting tasks) are useful to assess
athletic performance, but the basic outcomes (eg, jump height, sprint time) offer only a …

Abstract Cormier, P, Tsai, MC, Meylan, C, Agar-Newman, D, Epp-Stobbe, A, Kalthoff, Z, and
Klimstra, M. Concurrent validity and reliability of different technologies for sprint-derived …

Purpose: In this commentary, I present arguments against the use of the force–velocity
profiling concept in design and adaptations of training programs targeting sprinting. The …

Purpose To compare linear and curvilinear models describing the force–velocity relationship
obtained in lower-limb acyclic extensions, considering experimental data on an …

Maximal barbell power output (P max) and vertical barbell threshold velocity (v thres) are
major determinants of weightlifting performance. Moreover, an optimal force-velocity …

The objective was to analyze the changes in the horizontal force-velocity profile (HFVP)
during the execution of repeated sprinting. Methods: Seventeen first-division Chilean soccer …

The aim of this review was to examine the available literature on inter-limb strength and
power asymmetries and their effect on sports performance. In total, 31 studies were …

Purpose: To determine the utility of countermovement-jump and Keiser leg-press tests for
tracking changes in elite athletes of different sports. Methods: Elite athletes of the Norwegian …

Profile determination in field hockey is critical to determining athletes' physical strengths and
weaknesses, and is key in planning, programming, and monitoring training. This study …
