*2.1. Participants*

A total of 44 participants volunteered to partake in the research. The sample consisted of 18 women (age—28.9 ± 5.6 years; height—169.6 ± 6.2 cm; weight—60.5 ± 8.7 kg) and 26 men (age—30.1 ± 10.6 years; height—178.2 ± 16.2 cm; weight—85.9 ± 23.8 kg) who were recreationally active and had membership in the local gym in Subotica, Serbia where the testing was performed. Participants completed general health and demographic survey and were excluded if they had a history of diseases, injuries in the past six months, or physical condition that may affect testing. All participants were asked if they regularly participated in vigorous physical activity and about the type of activity. Additionally, data were collected regarding the training background and training frequency during one week. On the day of testing, they were healthy, without any heart or pulmonary disease, and injury-free. Before the testing, they were not involved in any strength, jumping, or high-intensity training for 48 h. They were informed about the testing procedures, and before the start, they signed written informed consent. The research adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the local ethics committee (ref. 12/1041).
