Janz, Kathleen F.; Laurson, Kelly R.; Baptista, Fatima; Mahar, Matthew T.; Welk, Gregory J. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
Using a sample of healthy youth (n = 466, 10 to 18 yr), we report the predictive utility of vertical jump power (VJ Power, W) for predicting bone strength. We measured VJ Power using mechanography and an indicator of bone strength, i.e., height-adjusted total bone mineral content less head (TBLH BMC, g), using DXA. Growth curve models were used to…
