Squat and countermovement jump performance across a range of loads: a comparison between Smith machine and free weight execution modes in elite sprinters

Squat and countermovement jump performance across a range of loads: a comparison between Smith machine and free weight execution modes in elite sprinters

The aims of this study were to: 1) provide and compare the height achieved during Smith machine (SM) and free weight (FW) loaded jumps executed over a wide spectrum of loads (40–120% of body mass [BM]); and 2) test the difference between loaded and unloaded squat jump (SJ) and countermovement jump (...
