Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the potential of lower extremity muscle and has been made a comparison between the two types of vertical jumps with students of the first year of high school. The sample of examinees in this study were high school students and students of “9. May” in Nis. 37 students, aged 15 ± 6 months were divided into two groups according to gender. All subjects were divided into two subgroups: boys N = 14 and N = 23 girls. The variables of the jump to a half squat (CMJ) and jump from a squatting (SJ) are: the flying time (TF) sec, jump height (H) cm. On the basis of the realized research, it can be concluded the following: There was a statistically significant difference between the half squat vertical jump and a jump from a squat for the first grade girls. There was a statistically significant difference between the half squat vertical jump and a jump from a squat for the first grade boys.
