...However, in 60-s jumping with a small angular displacement (~-- 45 degrees) the frequency increases about twice, and because of a favorable moment arm around the knee joint ( Smidt 1973 ), and a better neuromuscular function, both mechanical efficiency and power output reach very high values (Asmussen and Bonde-Petersen 1974b; Bosco et al. 1981c)....

...These findings are in contrast to previous studies in which a strong relationship has been found between the Margaria test and both the Wingate test (e.g., Ayalon et al. 1974; Bar-Or et al. 1978) and the average power output calculated from a single vertical jump performance (Bosco et al. 1981b)....
