Assessing the Validity of Standing Long Jump to Predict Muscle Power in Children With and Without Motor Delays.

Conclusions: SLJ, in combination with weight and age, may be used to measure muscle power in typically developing children, and in children with risk for DCD and probable DCD. This measure can be used as an inexpensive estimate of musculoskeletal fitness in children regardless of motor abilities. PMID: 31177948 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
