<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The aim of this study was to quantify how elite high jumpers used their free limbs in a competitive high jump and to estimate the contribution that these made to vertical take-off velocity. This was achieved by analysing the competitive performances of six elite male high jumpers using 3D motion analysis and assessing limb function using the relative momentum method. It was concluded that to maximize the contribution the free limbs can make to performance, given the restraints imposed on technique by other performance requirements, the arms should have a vigorous downward motion at touch-down to make the most use of the high (but little changing) relative momentum of the lead leg</abstract>
