“…Variability and asymmetry have been reported in double-legged landings after spiking in volleyball (Marquez et al, 2009) and even for apparently symmetrical drop landings (Schot et al, 1994). In player G's DOUBLE-LEG landing, asymmetry was also seen in the hip (extension and abduction), knee, ankle, and foot angles at ‰oor contact, which were larger in the left leg than in the contralateral one.…”

“…However, many studies (Gerberich et al, 1987;Ferretti et al, 1992;Watkins and Green, 1992;Scha‰e, 1993;Solgard et al, 1995;Briner and Kacmar, 1997) report that jump-landing is the source of most of the injuries in volleyball, indicating that speciˆc prevention practices for landing should be included in volleyball training programs. Landing on both feet after spiking is widely recommended (Abendroth-Smith and Kras, 1999), with a raised trunk with extended hip and a slight knee ‰exion at the initial contact with the ‰oor, followed by large ranges of motion in the knee and ankle, according to Marquez et al (2009).…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the motions during the airborne phase and their relations with single-legged landing position in elite male volleyball players during o‹cial games, and gain insights into techniques for safe landing. The spike-landing motions of four male world-level right-handed volleyball players were recorded with two high-speed video cameras during o‹cial games for a three-dimensional analysis. The results indicated a large trunk twist and a trunk left lean during the airborne phase of single-legged landings. The lower limbs reacted to the upper body motion diŠerently for the left and right legs. The left hip extended during the last portion of the airborne phase to prepare for landing while the right hip continuously ‰exed and abducted, elevating the right leg, which resulted in left-legged landings. The results of one double-legged landing of a skilled player indicated that a compact trunk twist with a small left lean may have been why a straight body conˆguration was maintained and the right leg did not elevate as in the single-legged landings.

“…Efficiency of various methods for improvement of jump’s height while hitting was also investigated by Newton et al (1999) , Reeberg et al (2008) , Sheppard et al (2008) , Sheppard et al (2009) and others. Some studies also deal with landing after an attack hit; they however concentrate on health and injury prevention ( Bisseling et al, 2008 ; Cronin et al, 2008 ; Marquez et al, 2009 ; Tillman et al, 2004 ). Most of the studies are conducted by utilization of the attack hit from outside court zones IV and II.…”

The aim of the study was to describe and compare kinematics in two types of execution of attack hit, the goofy approach and regular approach. The research group consisted of players from the Czech Republic’s top league (n = 12, age 28.0 ± 4.3 years, body height 196.6 ± 5.6 cm, body mass 89.7 ± 6.7 kg) divided into two groups according to the individual type of approach in the attack. Analysis of movement was performed by 3D kinematics video analysis, space coordinates were calculated by the DLT (Direct Linear Transformation) method together with interpretation software TEMA Bio 2.3 (Image Systems AB, Sweden). The players started their run-up from a distance of about 4 – 4.5 m from the net with similar maximal vertical velocity (2.91 – 2.96 m⋅s-1). The trajectory of players with goofy approach seemed to be convenient for the rotation of shoulders and hips in the moment of ball contact. Differences between both groups were observed. Players with a goofy approach had a longer flight phase compared to regularly approaching players.

“…However, in practical situations, players would probably exert a higher GRF and have shorter time to peak. By conducting neuromuscular training, the landing technique can be improved to prevent lower limb injuries caused by strong floor impacts (Irmischer et al, 2004;Marquez et al, 2009;Wikstrom et al, 2008).…”

Previous research in badminton has associated unilateral landings following overhead strokes with the occurrence of knee injuries. Smashing involves tensing the abdomen muscles while swinging the racket rapidly and maintaining one’s balance while performing coordinated movements and steps; this process puts stress on the player’s lower limbs. However, few studies have compared the effects of different stroke training while performing various types of badminton strokes. This study investigated the influence of different stroke training on the smash action of badminton players. Three stroke training conditions were considered: shadow, target striking, and smashing. Sixteen male experienced badminton players were recruited for this study. One-way repeated-measures ANOVA with Bonferroni correction was used to identify the differences. At the initial contact with the ground, the knee flexion and knee valgus angles under the smash condition were significantly higher than target and shadow conditions. Under the smash condition, hip abduction was significantly higher than under the target and shadow conditions. Moreover, the hip abduction under the target condition was significantly higher than under the shadow condition. At the maximum knee flexion, the hip abduction under the smash and target conditions was significantly higher than under the shadow condition. Regarding the time from the moment of initial contact to the peak of vertical ground reaction force it was shorter under the smash condition than the target and shadow conditions. The vertical ground reaction force was higher under the smash condition than under the target and shadow conditions. The 50 ms impulse was higher under the smash condition than under the target and shadow conditions. The main findings of this study are that under the smash condition, the motion in the frontal plane increased, which produced higher loads on the joints in the lower limbs. Player performed the same footwork under the three conditions, but the landing strategies differed because of unique swing motions and techniques. The condition under which a player hits a shot to a target area can affect the landing. The results of this study suggest that target practice is more effective for improving the landing technique employed during actual shots than shadow practice.
