First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026

Summary

This study looked at how different squat depths (partial, parallel, full) affect leg muscle activity and jump performance right after exercise. Fourteen healthy, trained adults did squats at each depth while researchers measured muscle signals and jump height. The goal was to understand which squat depth best activates muscles and improves explosive power.
