Aim: Clinical measurements have been pointed out to favor the sport-return. However, the mechanical nature to which clinical measurements are associated has not yet been determined. This study has aimed to determine the association between the numerical visual scale of pain, calf perimeter, one-leg heel rises, dorsal range of motion, their difference between legs, elastic and impact index during a vertical jump in recreational athletes.
Materials and Methods: 36 participants (20.8 ± 2.8 years-old, 65.4 ± 11.1 kg) were included. The elastic and impact index were registered during a vertical jump with and without countermovement jump through a force platform Bertec®. The multivariate association technique and linear dimension reduction (principal components) have been used.
Discussion: The first, second, and third components explained the 29,0%, 27,7%, and 17,8% of the total variance. The first, second, and third components generated major weight respect the impact index and dorsal range of motion, one-leg heel-rise difference between legs and elastic index, and calf circumference difference between legs, respectively. It is suggestive that the first, and second, components express mechanical dissipation, and generation. The third competent was not enough to associate clear mechanical properties alone..
