“…Basketball experience and %F change were the most predictive variables for improvement in both the 20 m dash and in the T-test. On the other hand, being obese is a negative predictor of the 20 m dash: according to our findings, the higher the BMI, the slower the child runs, which is consistent with the results found by Nikolaidis et al [59].…”

During pre-adolescence, several variables connected to growth and weight status could influence physical performance and technical skills. This study aims to assess the influence of growth-related anthropometric changes, weight status, and basketball experience on physical performance in pre-adolescent basketball players. The sample consisted of 50 male basketball players (12.2 ± 0.4 years-old) included in the U-13 category. Anthropometric characteristics were collected using standard procedures. Physical performance was evaluated by 20 m Dash, T-test, squat jump, countermovement jump, and medicine ball throw. In order to assess growth-related changes, we conducted two surveys within a 10-week time span. Student’s t-test was used to compare the data collected in the two surveys and multiple regression analyses were performed to assess the effects of growth, weight status, and basketball experience on performance. After 10 weeks there was a significant increase in FFM (Fat-Free Mass) and a significant decrease in fat parameters. Moreover, between the two surveys, all motor tests significantly improved. The results of linear regression models showed that changes in %F (percentage of body fat) were significantly associated with speed and agility, while handgrip strength and weight status were associated with upper limb explosive strength. Basketball experience was a significant predictor of all three motor tests. In conclusion, body composition changes, years of experience, and weight status influenced physical performance and players’ motor skills ability, especially speed, agility, and upper limb explosive strength.

“…Results from prior studies supported this hypotheses by demonstrating a significant negative correlation between jump performances (SLJ or vertical jump) and BMI (moderate correlation magnitude), as well as body fat (high correlation magnitude), respectively. 26,27 However, a significant, strong secular increase in core strength (TMST performance), and secular decrease in balance ability (OLS performance) were recorded in Swiss conscripts over the last decade. These results might relate to adaptations in sport participation and the physical training behavior of young Swiss citizens.…”

From 1980 to 2000, physical fitness decreased and body mass index (BMI) increased in the population of many industrialized countries. Little is known about these trends after the year 2000. This study aimed to investigate physical fitness performance, physical activity (PA) behavior, and BMI of young, male Swiss adults between 2006 and 2015. For this purpose, results from the Swiss Armed Forces mandatory recruitment were used. A total of 306 746 male conscripts provided complete fitness test data, mean ± SD (range from 5th to 95th percentile): 20 ± 1 (18‐21) years, 178 ± 7 (168‐189) cm; 74 ± 13 (58‐97) kg, predicted maximal oxygen consumption of 49.9 ± 4.6 (41.8‐56.9) mL/kg/min (Conconi test), 125 ± 58 (43‐232) seconds in trunk muscle strength test (prone bridge), 2.31 ± 0.24 (1.90‐2.66) m in standing long jump, 6.46 ± 0.73 (5.30‐7.70) m in seated shot put (2 kg medical‐ball shot) and 45.6 ± 12.2 (29.9‐66.7) seconds in one‐leg standing test (sum of both legs; eyes closed after 10 seconds and head tilted back after 20 seconds). In the investigated population, 73.8% fulfilled basic PA recommendations, 46.2% were classified as regularly vigorously active. Performances in aerobic endurance and muscle power did not show secular changes over time. However, core stability performance and PA behavior increased, while balance ability decreased over this 10‐year period. Average BMI increased by 2.0% between 2006 and 2010 and did not change thereafter. Male Swiss adults are at least as physically fit as they were a decade ago. The secular trends of decreasing physical performances and increasing BMI have stopped, and self‐reported sport participation and leisure time PA have been increased in the observed population over the last 10 years.

“…A study presented by Schiltz et al (2009) concerning the height of the CMJ did not reveal significant differences between groups of professional basketball players 40.5 ±5.7 (cm) and juniors 41.8 ±5.8 (cm). Higher jump heights of SJ 32.2 ±3.4 (cm) and CMJ 35.4 ±3.8 (cm) were indicated also among 16 year old athletes by Kellis et al (1999) and height of CMJ 38.6 ± 7.0 (cm) among U-18 year old players, found by Nikolaidis et al (2015).…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the musculoskeletal state and jumping ability and to analyse the relationships between fundamental movement patterns and the jumping height of male junior level basketball players. Fifty four Under 18 (U-18) years basketball players were evaluated according to FMS 21 and 100 point scale and height of Squat (SJ) and Countermovement jump (CMJ). Spearman and Pearson correlations were carried out to identify whether a relationship existed between FMS scores and the height of SJ and CMJ. The moderate correlations were found between height of both jumps and FMS score (SJ, r = 0.375; CMJ, r = 0.498), whereas the sub-tests show a reliable correlation between the Deep Squat (DS) score and CMJ height (r = 0.315). A higher height of CMJ was also associated with the scores of In-line Lunge (r = 0.357) and Active SLR (r= 0.291). The basis of the findings we can conclude that improvement of the jump ability can be achieved by the enhancement of the overall musculoskeletal state, which can be identified through the composite FMS score or by "Deep squat", "In-line Lunge" and "Active SLR" sub-tests.
