![]() In the experimental sessions, exercises in a Smith squat machine prior to the vertical countermovement jump (CMJ) test and a Special Judo Fitness Test (SJFT). The subjects went through four days of tests, one familiarization session, another as a control situation and two others as experimental sessions. The sample was made up of eight judo athletes (22.3 ± 3.5 years old, 166.0 ± 6.0 cm 65.4 ± 7.0 kg). Thus, the objective of the present study is to verify the effect of isometric squat exercise on the performance of judo athletes. Muscular power, a determinant in judo fights, can be developed by high intensity strength exercises through a mechanism known as post-activation potentiation.
