Static balance area = area covered by the centre of pressures during the static balance test; PF = peak vertical force; PP = peak power; h = jump height; F1 = first peak vertical force value; F2 = second peak vertical force value; T1 = time elapsed from contact to F1; T2 = time elapsed from contact to F2; TBW = time from feet contact until the vertical ground reaction forces reach the subject´s weight for the first time after the landing; * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.05; *** p < 0.001
