ABSTRACT
SUBJECTS: The aim of this research was to compare the squat jump (SJ) and counter-movement
jump (CMJ) heights and power scores of elite sport participants from different sports. Four hundred
fifteen (415) elite sport participants (males = 235 and females = 180) from different branches ( Track
and Field (Sprinters), Basketball, Boxing, Gymnastics, Handball, Mounteering, Taekwon- do,
Volleyball and Wrestling ) were voluntarily included in this study ( Male age x = 21.64 ± 3.90 years;
weight x = 76.59 ± 15.41 kg; height x = 177.92 ± 11.19 cm; Female age x = 17.68 ± 2.63 years; weight
x = 63.98 ± 8.05 kg; height =173.11 ± 8.62 cm).
METHOD: Measurements were taken during the national team preperation camps between 1993-2004
years. They were tested for their dynamic explosive force by asking them to perform jump test (SJ or
CMJ) on a mat. Bosco Ergo Jump was used to calculate the jump heights. Power (watt) were calculated
according to Harman (1991) and Sayers (1999). Three maximal jumps were recorded for each test
condition and the best performance was used for the statistical analysis. Results are expressed as means
and sd. Comparison among sport branches were examined by using variance analysis (ANOVA) with a
significance detected at a level of p< 0.05. Scheffe’s post-hoc test was used to analyse if any significant
difference occurred.
RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences between jump heights and power scores of
male subjects ( FSJ = 16.850; FCMJ = 15.963; FSJP = 8.131; FCMJP = 8.885; p
