Abstract:
This study aimed to elucidate how body composition, force-generating capacity and jump performances are associated with 50-m sprint velocity in circumpubertal boys, in relation to sprint phases and maturation. One hundred thirty four circumpubertal boys were allocated to preadolescent or adolescent group on basis of the height at the peak height velocity of Japanese boys (154 cm) reported in literature: those with body heights over 154 cm as adolescent group and others as preadolescent group. Body composition was determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis. In addition to maximal voluntary isometric knee extension torque, the performances of counter movement jump (CMJ), rebound jump (RJ), standing long jump (SLJ) and standing 5-step jump (SFJ) were also measured. RJ-index was calculated by dividing height by contact time. The time of 50-m sprint was determined at 10-m intervals. Multiple regression analysis showed that in preadolescent boys, SFJ become a predictor for the sprint speed during acceleration phases, and SFJ, RJ-index and CMJ as predictors for the sprint speeds during maximal speed and deceleration phases. In the adolescent boys, age, CMJ, SLJ, and SFJ become a predictor for the sprint speed during acceleration phases, and torque relative to body mass, CMJ and SFJ were selected as predictors for the sprint speeds during maximal speed and deceleration phases. Thus, the current results indicate that force-generating capacity and jumping ability are determinants for sprint performance in circumpubertal boys, but the relative contribution of each of the two factors differs between preadolescent and adolescent stages and among the sprint phases.
