Introduction In the realm of athletic training and performance optimization, comprehending the intricate interplay between internal and external training loads is of paramount importance. This study investigates the association between internal and external load measures in vertical jump sessions, employing two set structure methods: traditional and cluster. Methods The study involved 11 physically active participants. Vertical jump sessions comprised 144 jumps divided into 12 sets, with a fixed number of 12 jumps per set for the traditional structure and varying for the cluster structure (from 6 to 18 jumps). External load variables and subjective and objective assessments of internal load were employed. Results Subjective variables of internal load exhibited a very high association with external load variables for both applied set structures (r=0.90-0.99). In contrast, objective variable of internal load generally displayed a weaker relationship, ranging from low for the cluster set structure to moderate and high for traditional set structure. Discussion and conclusion The results highlight the intricate relationship between internal and external load measures during vertical jump sessions, with subjective variables showing exceptionally high associations across set structures.

Different set structures can influence jump height and mechanical power performance. While a traditional set structure (TSS) leads to declines in jump height and power, the undulating set structure (USS) helps mitigate this decline during training. This study aimed to investigate the effects of USS on maximal and mean power production, as well as maximal jump height maintenance compared to TSS during vertical jumping sessions. Twelve physically active male participants with jumping training experience completed two separate vertical jump sessions, each consisting of 144 jumps divided into 12 sets. A two-way repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant differences in maximal power in favor of USS. For maximal height, significant differences were found both between set structures and training volume. These findings highlight the importance of set structure in preserving maximal and mean power, as well as jump height.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of set structures in designing bodyweight power training. Specifically, the study compared the effects of the cluster set structure undulating variant and the traditional set structure on training load and performance during vertical jumping sessions. Sixteen active males participated in the study. Four training sessions consisted of 144 countermovement jumps distributed into 12 sets, where the number of repetitions varied for the cluster set structure, while it was fixed for the traditional set structure. The results suggest that the cluster set structure undulating variant allows superior utilization of applied external load, reduction of internal load and overall higher performances maintained during the entire training session compared to traditional set structure.

In contrast, objective internal load generally displayed a weaker relationship. The results emphasize the need for coaches to consider set structure when optimizing training strategies.

Countermovement jump is an element of many sports techniques and has an important role in overall performance, both when performed at maximal and submaximal intensity. This paper investigates changes in biomechanical and neuromuscular variables responsible for controlling different submaximal intensities of the countermovement jump. Eight healthy volleyball players from the first league of the Republic of Serbia performed countermovement jumps at three different jump heights. The results show that the increase in jump height is related to an increase in the amortization phase, due to increases in angular displacements in the knee and hip joint, as well as increased torque of the hip joint.

Deadlift is a measure of the overall strength of the whole body and one of the three exercises in powerlifting competition. The aim of this study was to determine the differences between conventional and sumo deadlift techniques from the aspect of kinematics, kinetics and electromyography. Nine physically active men participated in the study. Significant differences were found between techniques in initial angular positions in monitored joints and in mechanical work. Mechanical work was significantly higher when lifting with the conventional technique, while activation of the medial and lateral heads of m. quadriceps femoris was significantly higher when lifting with the sumo technique.
