Ever wonder how much countermovement is 'too much' in a squat jump?
In this paper, we looked at > 900 squat jumps under four different loads. Turns out, unweighing amplitudes of as little as 2% body mass significantly increase jump height - take a look!

@spikesonly @DocLachJames @woozleyoung @PaulGastin @Robertson_SJ @latrobe However, this may not be the case in highly trained weightlifters; those with the heaviest squat may not be the ones with the heaviest snatch, for example. More research can help discover where different “domains” exist in highly trained weightlifters.

@spikesonly @DocLachJames @woozleyoung @PaulGastin @Robertson_SJ @latrobe Very good question. Simply put, the classification of Olympic lifting derivatives likely differ if we’re talking about trained Olympic lifters or athletes who use weightlifting derivatives to train for a different sport…

@spikesonly @DocLachJames @woozleyoung @PaulGastin @Robertson_SJ @latrobe If we look at team sport athletes, or those with a more general RT backgrounds, we can bin clean/snatch performance in with the “heavy dynamic strength” category (with back squat 1RM, etc)… cont’

Awesome work Dr @mcgeneau on publishing this review (alongside two other studies so far) from her outstanding PhD thesis.

It builds on our previous article in SCJ by undertaking an even more systematic and comprehensive dive into the topic.

We also dug into the different considerations for determining metric classification such as the performance of the strength test/task and the calculation methods used for different metrics.

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

[Mary Claire Geneau, PhD @mcgeneau]

@ActivateGlutes In biological science, the term domain is used to represent a high level of classification. We used these concepts and the dictionary definition to guide our context-specific definition.

@ActivateGlutes Good question. We’ve defined the term “strength domain” in a series of papers throughout my thesis. It is used to define/explain the physical quality that force-time metrics measure/represent. “Domains” can assist in the interpretation of data-reduction results.

The replicability of lower body strength domains in Australian rules footballers is pretty darn good. The results from this study suggest that certain data reduction methods can consistently discover strength domains at different time points of season.
