Influence of reactive and maximum strength indicators on sprint performance.
Healy, Robin; Smyth, Carol; Kenny, Ian C.; Harrison, Andrew J. (Wolters Kluwer, 2018)The primary aim of this study was to assess the relationship between reactive and maximal strength measures with 40 m sprint performance and mechanical properties. Fourteen male and fourteen female sprinters participated ... -
Profiling elite male 100-m sprint performance: the role of maximum velocity and relative acceleration
Healy, Robin; Kenny, Ian C.; Harrisson, Andrew J. (Elsevier, 2019-08)Purpose: This study aimed to determine the accuracy of a 4 split time modelling method to generate velocity-time and velocity-distance variables in elite male 100-m sprinters and subsequently to assess the roles of key ... -
Reactive strength index: a poor indicator of reactive strength?
Healy, Robin; Kenny, Ian C.; Harrison, Andrew J. (Human Kinetics, 2018-07)Purpose: The primary aim was to assess the relationships between reactive strength measures and associated kinematic and kinetic performance variables achieved during drop jumps. A secondary aim was to highlight issues ...
